Acer shirasawanum Autumn Moon - Rare Japanese Full Moon Maple
Availability: In stock
'Autumn Moon' is a spectacular choice for the discerning Acer Aficionado, Maple Collector, or simply the garden lover who likes to have something unusual in the garden. If you've not seen this variety before, then you are in for a treat.
A very special cultivar, Acer shirasawanum 'Autumn Moon' will not fail to delight. It bursts into growth each spring with a bold flash of new foliage that maintains an elegance all of its own. The tone of the new leaves is burnt orange, which intensifies towards the end of the growing tips, over an underlying shade of pale green-gold. In sunny summer conditions, the colour will intensify. In Autumn, foliage flushes all shades of fire before falling for the winter months - a truly spectacular small tree worthy of a spot in any garden.
Resistant to burning in full sun, this Acer will make a stunning focal point in any planting area. Slow growing, it is also an ideal specimen for a large planter where it will be happy for many years. Truly one of our must-have varieties; it will make an impressive impact, particularly if you have a Japanese-themed area or pond to plant it nearby.
Supplied in approx. 2-3 litre containers as strong branched young trees.
