Acer palmatum Japanese Maple
This maple is famed for its excellent autumnal colour and as a stately shade tree. The prized autumn leaf colour has leaves changing from green in spring and summer into shades of yellow, orange and red tones.
It does best in full sun to part shade and prefers an evenly moist soil that is well drained. Mulch well in summer to keep the roots cool and moist. It needs protection from strong drying winds otherwise leaves will scorch and burn
