Acer palmatum Aoyagi - Japanese Maple - LARGE
Availability: In stock
Aoyagi forms a striking upright specimen with beautiful pea-green branches in the winter months making it ideal to contrast with other plants for interest at the bleaker times of the year such as the Red-stemmed Acer Sango Kaku or Dogwoods. The foliage emerges as a nice bright green in spring, and remains so through out the year providing a wonderful foliage contrast to the other varieties in the collection. In autumn these leaves shade through fiery shades of orange and yellow, before falling for the winter months.
Ideal for creating a Japanese theme anywhere in your garden. Order today to take advantage of this great offer. Great in pots or containers, or planted in the ground mixed with other shrubs and acers. Supplied in approx. 10 litre containers.
Dappled shade is best for foliage colours but will tolerate full sun. No pruning routine is required, just remove any dead or damaged branches. Pruning is best in late autumn when the plant is fully dormant. Late spring it is advised to add a top layer of a multi-purpose fertiliser to the base of the plant.
