Acer palmatum 'Yasmin'

Acer palmatum 'Yasmin' (Japanese Maple)
 

Common Name

Japanese Maple
 

Soil

Any non alkaline soil. Correct light more important
 

Aspect

Sun or partial shade
 

Height

25-35ft
 

Action and Timing

Outstanding Dutch selection with deeply cut, shiny, deep red leaves bronzing nicely as summer passes. There is some Acer shirasawanum in the breeding so the leaves flatten out as maturity nears. The tree is a vigorous grower to 35ft with scarlet autumn colour. Yasmin is a particular favourite of mine for any light or situation.
 

Nursery Notes

Grafted plant.
 

Opinion

Good vigorous grower with all round attributes, an absolute delight in the garden.
