This beautiful Japanese maple will enhance any garden. It will also look wonderful in a pot or tub on the patio or balcony. The plant produces a densely branching, upright bush with lovely lobed pink leaves in spring turning to green in summer. The young growing tips are reddish brown and create an attractive contrast. It provides breathtaking autumn colour. Height 125 cm, spread 100 cm. Cut back long shoots in March to promote compact growth. Tolerates sun or shade. The plant is fully hardy but will need some protection if planted in a pot. Likes a sandy, humus-rich soil. If this is not available add some garden peat to the planting hole.
