Acer palmatum

Acer palmatum

This maple is a large, often picturesque shrub, with young branches displaying a striking bright red color. The palmate leaves have five (or more) lobes and are a tender green, often with pink-red tips. In autumn, the foliage turns yellow, bright orange, or red, with the intensity varying depending on the temperature. The flowers are red-purple and bloom in May. These plants withstand the cold but are susceptible to late frosts, especially when young. They have specific soil requirements: the optimal soil should be fresh, loose, moist yet well-drained, slightly acidic, and clayey. Satisfactory results can also be achieved in soils of varying compositions, provided they are not heavy, are free from waterlogging, and are non-calcareous, with the addition of heather soil. The plants require an exposure of partial shade to full sun, protected from strong winds. Partial shade becomes essential in sandy soil or in hot, arid locations.
