Katsura Japanese Maple

Acer palmatum 'Katsura'

This selection offers one of the most dynamic seasonal colour progressions among upright maples, from chartreuse with orange margins in spring, through rich green in summer, to orange and yellow in fall, it changes more distinctly with the seasons than most other cultivars.

  • Leaves emerge chartreuse with orange-tinted margins, a warm two-tone effect in spring
  • Bright green foliage in summer provides a clean, fresh appearance
  • Orange and yellow fall colour completes a full seasonal colour arc from spring through fall
  • Dense, compact upright habit, well-proportioned for urban gardens

Growing & Maintenance Tips
Best planted in a well-drained soil with high organic matter. Japanese maples are grown as specimen trees or multi-stemmed plants. Any pruning should be done in summer. Mulch well, but avoid heaping mulch against the stem. Most cultivars need full sun or partial shade.
