Aoyagi Japanese Maple*
Acer palmatum 'Aoyagi'
Overview
The Aoyagi Japanese Maple is a stunning sight to behold. It is a beautiful, compact deciduous shrub with highly textured, silver-green to yellow-green foliage that transforms to shades of maroon-red in autumn. Springtime brings clusters of small, rosy-red flowers that provide sweet nectar for butterflies and other pollinators. Aoyagi Japanese Maples make nice additions to rock gardens, small spaces, naturalized areas and even as specimen plants on larger properties. They grow best in part shade to full sun with well-drained, slightly acidic soil and average water. Highly ornamental, easy to care for and disease-resistant, the Aoyagi Japanese Maple is an amazing and rewarding choice for any landscape.
