Cliff - 

Here is what Heronswood has to say about this species:

"A lovely, small and sturdy evergreen tree, with leathery, yellow-green
leaves that bronze in winter.  Clusters of greenish-yellow flowers
develop fruit that, upon closer inspection, look like tiny unopened
parasols.  An acient genus related to Magnolias.  USDA Zone6, Japan,
Trochodendraceae
