Rich orange autumn foliage
Small ornamental tree
Good for small gardens

Acer palmatum Katsura is an ornamental tree with fantastic foliage that emerges bright orange in spring. It lightens to yellow edged in pink as the spring progresses and then turns green in summer. Finally, the leaves take on rich orange tones in autumn before falling. It makes an ideal specimen tree with a long season of interest.

Plant in a moist, well drained, neutral or slightly acidic soil, with shelter from hot afternoon sun and drying winds which could scorch the leaves.

Water regularly during dry periods in the first year after planting, using rain water rather than tap water if possible.

If necessary, prune from November to March to remove dead, damaged or crossing branches. Pruning at other times of year will cause the tree to bleed sap, which weakens it. Avoid pruning unless necessary, as Japanese maples produce their best shape naturally.
