Experience the allure of the Acer palmatum ssp. amoenum 'Omato', a stunning Japanese Maple that transforms your landscape with its vivid seasonal hues. Renowned for its ornamental globe-shaped form, 'Omato' is a deciduous tree that effortlessly captivates with its large, lobed palmate leaves. In spring, its vibrant foliage emerges with a tomato-orange tint, quickly transitioning to a lush emerald green throughout the summer. As autumn arrives, be prepared for a striking display as the leaves turn radiant shades of gold, orange, and red.
Ideal for use as a singular accent tree or in bonsai, 'Omato' is a vigorous grower with a graceful vase-shaped habit. Reaching heights of 15 to 20 feet in 25 years, it promises to be a strong, round-headed centerpiece in your garden. Its rough gray bark and contrasting red branches add depth to any landscape, making it not just a tree, but a year-round spectacle. While seedlings of cultivars may vary, each 'Omato' nurtures a unique piece of natural artistry, perfect for creating a serene and picturesque environment.
