Acer palmatum 'Kurui jishi' Japanese Maple Orange Green in the summer

Green in the summer

When the sun comes through the leaves of this tree the effect is a breathtaking luminous red

The summer leaves are dark green and the which are accented with small cherry fruit

My personal favorite of the red dissectum

Flowering pear bears a multitude of white blooms before the dark green foliage appears in the spring followed by tiny pears in the fall

Acer palmatum 'Kurui jishi' Japanese Maple Orange Green in the summerNamed the "Crazy Lion" this is a fun and interesting tree. Each lobe of the small palmate leaf is curled under to meet the edges creating a very sharp and pointed effect. The branches twist upward and around like the furl of smoke from a fire. Excellent interest for close viewing. Attributes Leaf Shape Palmate Growth Habit Upright Landscape Height 5 ft. Container Height 3 ft.
