Acer palmatum 'Okushimo'
Acer 'Okushimo' is a distinctive deciduous Japanese maple with an elegant upright habit and unusual curled, star-shaped foliage. The fresh green leaves have slightly rolled edges, giving the plant an attractive textured appearance through spring and summer.
In autumn, the foliage develops brilliant shades of orange and gold, creating a striking seasonal display. Its graceful form and unusual leaves make 'Okushimo' an excellent specimen for smaller gardens, Japanese-style planting, courtyards and large containers.
Hardy and slow growing, 'Okushimo' performs best in a sheltered position in sun or partial shade with moist but well-drained soil. Protection from strong winds and intense afternoon sun will help keep the delicate foliage looking its best.
