ACER palmatum 'Higasa yama'
|
Description: Bright crimson leaf buds unfurl into pink, cream, and green seven lobed leaves. As the leaves mature, the pink fades leaving a cream colored toothed edge around a dark green center with each vein lighter green. The plant lends itself to bonsai, but in the landscape can be quite vigorous and upright. In good locations shoots of more than three feet can develop. These strong shoots tend to have the normal green leaves of the species, while second year growth usually returns to the variegated form. 8 x 5 feet.
