Tips on planting Japanese Maples


Acer palmatum

'Shikage Ori Nishiki'



Zone 6

(Europe 7)



Strong growing maturing at about 3 metres


Does broaden out to form a large bush


Not widely known and new to me this year (2007)


Autumn colour is apparently a beautiful orange which I await with interest


















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.
