Acer palmatum Asahi-Zuru (Orido-Nishiki)

Likely to emerge as one of the most popular Acer varieties but it is still very rare.

The deep pink and white variegation in Spring is followed by pink, white and green foliage until leaf fall. Not only are the leaves attractively coloured, but the bark also carries variegation of creamy white and pink. New growth ranges from almost pure white to bright purplish-pink, all with irregular patches of green.

Twigs on new growth are scarlet red. The Autumn colour is reddish-maroon. Supplied in approx 3 litre containers at a height of around 60-80cm.
