Bring an oriental atmosphere to your garden, terrace, or balcony with these beautifully colored Japanese maple trees. Japanese maples are known for their stunningly colored leaves and are a true eye-catcher. Each tree has its own beautiful colors and leaves, adding a lot of variety to your garden.

Acer palmatum 'Orange Dream': Acer palmatum 'Orange Dream' is a tall Japanese maple with yellow-orange leaves. This Japanese maple is characterized by a more upright growth habit than most other Japanese maples.

Acer palmatum 'Beni Maiko': Acer palmatum 'Beni Maiko' is another beautiful species of Acer. In spring, the wrinkled leaves of this Japanese maple are fire red, later in the season they fade to pink-red. By mid-summer, the leaves are more blue-green with red veins.

Care: Japanese maples are best planted from March to early November. During this time, the soil is warm, and the plants can root well. Japanese maples are robust plants, but in a windy location, the leaves can be damaged. Therefore, place the Acer in a sheltered spot. The plant prefers a location in partial shade, ideally without too much direct sunlight. Too much direct sunlight can dry out the roots, leading to leaf loss and burns.
