From the Hyakuman-nin Gelaende at Zao? -
Interesting, Mr. Wiggles, I had no idea. Which led me to wonder why the heck the kanji is "wind tree," but Wikipedia tells me that the proper kanji was originally actually something else, but that other kanji didn't make it into the Joyo Kanji list. The wind-tree kanji, which did make it, came from another tree (pronounced "fuu") that looks kind of like the kaede. Learn something new every day!

These trees confuse me. We planted what we thought was a hanamizuki (magnolia, I thought), but it turned out to be a yamaboushi. Doesn't look like a dogwood to me, though (which we had when I was a kid). Then there's kobushi, which I thought was supposed to be a dogwood, but Wikipedia claims is a magnolia... Not really sure what is what any more, in either language...
