Looking for a beautiful addition to your garden? Consider the Acer japonicum, also known as the Downy Japanese Maple or Full Moon Maple.

The bark is smooth on young trees, becoming rough and scaly on old trees. With rounded, 7-15 cm diameter leaves that turn bright orange to dark red in autumn, this tree produces dark purplish-red flowers in drooping corymbs in early spring. It’s the perfect addition to any garden, and responds well to training and pruning. Order your Acer japonicum today and add a touch of Japanese beauty to your landscape.
