Why Choose the Sagara Nishiki Maple?

Key Features:

• Exceptional golden dusting variegation that can be so heavy it appears yellow from a distance, making it a true collector feature tree.
• Strong spring and summer appeal, with fresh chartreuse new growth that deepens to greener tones while keeping its golden speckling through the canopy.
• A reliable small feature Maple that adds colour and light without taking over the garden, ideal for courtyards, feature beds, and premium pot planting.
• Best colour and cleanest foliage come from morning sun or filtered light, with protection from hot afternoon sun to help prevent scorch and keep variegation crisp.
• Autumn display provides a glowing finish, typically golden yellow to orange, giving warm contrast against evergreens and darker foliage plants.
