Hino-tori-nishiki

Acer Palmatum Group: Sapindaceae

 

One of the bright, pink-red “spring red” palmatums, this newer, colourful cultivar is similar in shape and growth to the well known ‘Deshojo’ but the leaves are much more deeply divided and the leaf is triangular in shape with long, tail-like tips.  The summer colour is green with pink persisting on the margins and lobes, turning yellow-orange and red in the autumn.

 

Height: 3 metres
