This deciduous, woody shrub is native to parts of Asia and Russia, exuding a captivating allure. With an enticing array of garden-worthy cultivars bred for their remarkable leaf shapes and colors, the Acer palmatum lends an exquisite touch to any landscape.
The Acer palmatum Katsura variety embodies a slow-growing nature, showcasing deeply lobed, red-purple leaves that transition into a vibrant scarlet hue come autumn. A sight to behold, this beautiful small tree flourishes best in areas with ample light, as it boasts its deepest purple coloring under such conditions. In lower light environments, its foliage takes on a rich green shade.
Cultivating this botanical wonder is a delight, with best results achieved by planting in moist, well-drained soil within partial shade. Shielding the Acer palmatum Katsura from intense winds is advised to prevent potential leaf scorching. Fully hardy
