Asahi Zuru Japanese Maple
Acer palmatum 'Asahi Zuru'
Overview
The Asahi Zuru Japanese maple is an absolutely amazing specimen. With its multiple shades of green and yellow, it is absolutely stunning. Its deeply cut leaves and cascading foliage provide unique structure within the landscape. In fall, the foliage further stands out with its brilliant yellow, crimson, and orange colors. And during the winter months, stems are relieved of their foliage to reveal a pleasing, brown, exfoliating bark. Asahi Zuru Japanese maple is highly adaptable to many soil types, can be grown in sun or shade, and rarely requires pruning. All of this combined makes it a perfect choice for the home garden.
