Why Choose the Acer Palmatum Japanese Sunrise?
Key Features:
• Outstanding winter interest, with multicoloured coral bark that can show yellow to orange on one side and orange through to coral red on the other, giving a constantly changing look as you move around the tree.
• Bark colour is often brightest on the newest growth, so it keeps getting better year after year as the canopy develops.
• A strong choice for clean seasonal colour, fresh green foliage through the warmer months followed by a clear bright yellow autumn finish.
• Naturally upright and narrower than many Japanese Maples, making it ideal for courtyards, entry gardens, or feature beds where you want height without taking up too much width.
• Best results come from consistent moisture and a sheltered position, as excessive sun, wind, or dry conditions can lead to leaf scorch.
• A premium feature tree near paths or windows where the bark can be appreciated through winter, not just when it is in leaf.
