Larch color

[chappy56]

Hey all. I have a question about larch color. Attached are a couple that I got last year. I have no experience with this variety. The bigger one pictured is Japanese larch and the smaller, fuller one is American larch. The Japanese one is much lighter and not as developed. Is that common?

My young Japanese has the color of your American and my older American looks like your Japanese might just be a juvenile thing

I have Japanese Larch (Kaempferi?) - they are well leafed out and look much more like your bottom/American Larch picture - both length and color.
