Acer japonicum (shirasawanum) Aureum
An upright, rounded, slow-growing variety, the superb golden-yellow spring and autumn foliage of this tree is at its best in partial shade.
Use
As an isolated lawn specimen or in association with evergreen shrubs such as Rhododendrons, Japanese Azaleas, Camellias, etc.
Planting
In porous, acid or neutral soil. Add acid compost or peat at the time of planting. Choose a location with protection from strong winds.
Maintenance
Japanese Maples are resistant to most parasites if well planted. As a rule, they do not enjoy pruning, which should therefore be performed minimally.
