Japanese Maple

The delicate leaves of this multi-branched, compact cultivar grow closely together and overlap one another like shingles on a roof, producing a dense leaf cover and forms a nearly spherical form. New foliage, light yellow-green with red tips and margins, turns medium green as it matures. In fall, brilliant fiery red and darker red leaves create a dramatic show. Ideal in a small space, courtyard or near water. Prefers a cool site with moist, well-drained, woodland soil.
