Acer palmatum, or the Japanese Maple, is a superb deciduous tree designed to bring a vibrant colour burst to the garden. The maple is famous for its brilliant autumn colours of red , yellow and orange, whilst the fresh green leaves arriving in spring complement the change of season. The Japanese Maple is a great feature tree for the garden, as well as providing excellent shade. This small tree does well as a bonsai, in containers and will benefit from twice-year feeding with liquid fertilizer and complete plant food. Soil: Well-mulched, well-drained moist soil. Conditions: The leaves can be easily spoilt by sun and wind so a part shade or afternoon shade position is ideal. Susceptible to salt and excessive heat. Frost tolerant. Size: Height 5m x width 5m Show more
