Aratama Japanese Maple
Acer palmatum 'Aratama'
Acer palmatum 'Aratama' is a cultivar of Japanese maple known for its showy red foliage. This deciduous tree typically grows to a height of 3-4 feet with a similar spread. Its leaves are quite unique, emerging brick red. Come summer they change to a dark olive color, followed by beautiful shades of orang end gold in the fall. This cultivar prefers partial shade and well-draining soil that's kept consistently moist. 'Aratama' works well as a specimen tree or planted in groups for a dramatic effect. It is also a good choice for container planting.
