Plant at 3 years with me
Acer palmatum
'Omurayama'
Zone 6
(Europe 7)
An excellent example of the cascading type of Palmatum. As it attains height the pendulous branches become willowy, and form a long curtain around the perimeter of the plant
New foliage has a bright orange cast to the edges, but the leaves soon become a uniform brilliant green
Autumn colours are a spectacular gold and crimson combination
These pictures show the different colours of this plant at varying times of the year
REMEMBER that all Japanese Maples prefer a slightly acid well drained soil with a constant moisture content.
