Acer palmatum 'Ukon'

Acer palmatum 'Ukon' (Japanese Maple)
 

Common Name

Japanese Maple
 

Soil

Any non alkaline soil. Correct light more important
 

Aspect

Sun or partial shade
 

Height

18ft
 

Action and Timing

A superb maple and a contrasting “green stemmed” form to compliment the red stems of Senkaki. The spring foliage is a pleasing almost luminescent bright green and the autumn colours a lovely yellow. The stems are most attractive against snow, being especially bright in winter; it has upright growth to 18ft in any light.
 

Nursery Notes

Grafted plant.
 

Opinion

Quite simply an attractive addition to the winter garden, spring garden, summer garden, and autumnal garden.....What more do you f***ing want!? See also 'Senkaki'.
