The leaves look like they’re positively glowing on Tracey’s Plant Pick of the Week, the Coral Bark Japanese Maple. In spring, this stunning variety sprouts gorgeous, vibrant lime-green leaves that slowly turn to shades of yellow and gold in the fall. The reddish-coral bark stays the same color all year, offering great visual interest in winter.
As with all Japanese Maples here in Texas, they need morning sun & afternoon shade and like slightly acidic, well-drained soil. These beautiful trees are prized for their foliage, size and shape, making great specimen and under-carriage pieces. The Coral Bark is no exception, only reaching 15’ to 20’ tall and wide, giving a stellar Fall display, and drawing your eye year-round with color.
