Description
Introducing the Japanese Maple Tree – Coral Bark (Botanical Name: Acer Palmatum Sango Kaku). This deciduous tree is a beloved favorite in gardens, admired for its striking vase shape and standout feature: its stunning coral bark, especially prominent on younger branches during the winter months.
Thriving in zones 5 to 8, this Japanese Maple prefers moist, well-draining soil and can be grown in both full sun and part shade. With a mature height of 20 feet and width of 15 feet, it grows vigorously when young, shaping into a lovely vase form that adds elegance to any landscape.
In mid-spring, the Coral Bark Japanese Maple blooms with subtle corymbs of red flowers that rise above its lime green deciduous foliage. As the seasons change, the leaves transition from yellow-green to gold, culminating in a breathtaking display of gold, orange, and red hues in the fall.
While its colorful foliage is a standout feature, the true highlight of this tree is its bark. The rough gray bark and vibrant coral-pink branches add visual interest, particularly during the winter months when the tree is bare of leaves.
Whether planted as a focal point in the garden or incorporated into mixed plantings, the Japanese Maple Tree – Coral Bark offers year-round beauty and charm. With its stunning bark and colorful foliage, it's a must-have addition to any garden landscape.
