Introducing the Acer palmatum ssp. matsumurae 'Omurayama' - a stunning small tree with cascading branches that will add a touch of elegance to any garden. Its leaves start out orange in the spring, transition to green in the summer, and turn into spectacular blends of crimson and gold in the fall. As described in J.D. Vertrees' "Japanese Maples," the parent cultivar boasts 7 deeply cut lobes that emphasize the cascading effect of the branching. Young plants start as vigorous upright growers and eventually adopt a pendulous character. Keep in mind that seed collected from cultivars may or may not resemble the mother tree. If you're looking for a unique addition to your garden, the Omurayama Japanese Maple is a must-have.
