Japanese Acers are deciduous trees and they grow well in moist shadier conditions and will tolerate acidic soil. Acer Palmatum Seiryu is no different: it will do best in well-drained, humus-rich soil, in a sheltered spot in partial or dappled shade. Avoid exposed sites as harsh winds could lead to leaf scorch.
Acer Palmatum 'Garnet'
Acer Palmatum 'Garnet' is a medium-sized deciduous shrub. Leaves with usually seven deeply dissected lobes, deep brownish-red throughout summer, slightly brighter in autumn. Small purplish flowers are followed by red fruits.
Acer Palmatum Orangeola
Regarded as one of the most spectacular cascading Laceleaf Japanese Maples, award-winning Acer palmatum 'Orangeola' is also one of the most admired for its remarkable leaf color. This deciduous shrub or small tree features large, bright orange-red leaves in spring, adding sparkles to the garden.
Acer Palmatum 'Emma'
Acer palmatum 'Emma' is a beautiful weeping variety of Japanese Maple. New growth will emerge with orange tones that gradually turn pink in summer before developing bronze and cooper tones during autumn. Grow in a moist but well-drained soil. Water in summer if necessary. Leaf colour is best in partial shade, although full sun can be tolerated. Leaf Scorch can be caused by lack of soil moisture or excessive exposure
