Japanese Maple trees provide stunning colour and vibrancy to any garden, particularly shades of red, orange and even gold in the Autumn time.
Coupled with low maintenance, allows for a specialist garden space without hours of work. Japanese Maples are ideal for shaded areas, and will not take up a great deal of space. Read our guide to Japanese Maple trees.

Acer Palmatum Sango – Kaku
This Coral-bark Maple holds coral-red young branches which turn darker through winter. In spring 5-lobed leaves appear which open pinkish/yellow, becoming green in summer and yellow in autumn. This will grow to a large shrub or small tree making a great feature plant with the mass of coloured stems. Very small reddish flowers appear in spring. This Acer Palmatum Sango-Kaku would work well as a feature in a pot or grown in a mixed border.
Acer Palmatum Bloodgood
This Japanese Maple tree holds deep-reddish purple leaves through Spring and Summer, which fade to red and bronze in Autumn. Acer Palmatum Bloodgood will grow into a small tree and can be happily kept in a large pot, adding a sharp purple shade to any garden.
