Variegated, deeply cut leaves of red, pink, cream, on green make this new and unusual Japanese maple really stand out. The fall color is scarlet red with pink highlights. Variegated maples require sunlight to display their summer color. Morning sunlight up to 2pm is best. Without 4-5 hours of sunlight the leaves lose their color in the summer and begin to turn green. This tree will be 7 ft tall and 5 ft wide in 10 years. Hardy to zone 5.
