Tips on planting Japanese Maples


Acer palmatum

'Suminagashi'



Zone 6

(Europe 7)



Spring colour is a bright purple red


This becomes a deep maroon colour into summer, changing to a green-red, brown-red in late summer


Autumn colour is crimson


Suminagashi matures as a small tree at about 4 meters


















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.
