Japanese Maple

1-3

There are hundreds of varieties and cultivars of the Japanese maple. Some are green while many, such as this one, are red. And what a red! This medium-sized tree is normally rounded in shape, with layered branches. Fall color is magnificent, sometimes going into November. Introduced in the 1820s, this native to China and Korea is now widely cultivated in America. The size and intense color make it a favorite for landscapers.
