Shade / Part 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.
