Mikawa yatsubusa Japanese Maple

A dense, compact Japanese maple with stacked, shingled leaves and a fall finish in orange and red FEATURES:  Distinct “shingled” leaf layering that creates a dense, textured look unique among Japanese maples Compact, slow-growing habit ideal for small gardens, courtyards, and container-style focal planting Naturally tight branching that keeps the tree looking full and structured Excellent for part shade where foliage stays clean and richly detailed Strong architectural presence even without flowers, thanks to leaf texture and form Fall color in orange and red for a vivid seasonal finish Hand Selected; Fresh from the Grower Ships on our trucks because the size of the tree - does not fit in a box. Bower & Branch Landscape Design Tip:  This is a texture tree, so keep the neighbors calm. Surround it with a few solid green shapes, boxwood-style evergreens, low conifers, or simple groundcover, and the shingled leaf pattern will read clearly. Too many competing textures nearby can hide the detail that makes this tree special.
