Discover the charm of Acer palmatum, also known as Japanese Maple (Small Seeded), a prized choice among professional growers for rootstock due to its small seed type, perfect for budding and grafting. This versatile maple, native to Korea and Japan, is celebrated for its wide range of aesthetically pleasing forms, including both weeping and upright varieties. It thrives in Zones 5 to 8 and boasts striking seasonal foliage with deep red and orange hues in summer that intensify come fall, transitioning to yellow, bronze, purple, or red.

Standing at a moderate height of 10 to 25 feet, this tree is ideal as a specimen or accent in garden landscapes, Asian gardens, or woodland understories. With a slow to moderate growth rate, it features a layered, dense, rounded top with spreading branches. Favoring dappled shade and moist, well-drained soil, it requires protection from drying winds and excess sun to avoid leaf scorch. The Japanese maple's palmate leaves, resembling outstretched hands, create a striking visual in any setting, making it an excellent choice for a bonsai or ornamental piece. Its resilience to rabbits and black walnut further emphasizes its adaptability and appeal for gardeners seeking both beauty and versatility.
