This tree is much planted in northern and eastern China, particularly 

 in temple grounds. The only locality where it is supposed to grow 

 spontaneously is near Chang hua hsien in Chekiang, as stated by F. 

 N. Meyer in a letter to C. S. Sargent (see Arnold Arb. Bull. Pop. Inform, 

 n. ser. n. 52 [1916]).
