'Sango Kaku' (Coral Bark) Japanese Maple

(Acer palmatum 'Sango Kaku')

Grown for its colorful bark in winter! Bark turns bright red even in our mild winters, then back to grey in warm weather.

 

Just as impressive as its bark is its gorgeous fall color - BRILLIANT YELLOW to ORANGE-YELLOW!

 

Plant as a small-growing specimen next to the patio or deck.

 

Trees mature at 10-15' tall and wide.

Coral Bark Japanese Maple grows faster than any other Japanese Maple we know of - Expect up to 12" growth a year.

 

Plant in a spot which receives some shade from the hottest part of the afternoon summer sun.
