Japanese Maple 'Ariadne'
Award-winning Acer palmatum ‘Ariadne’ (Japanese Maple) is a semi-dwarf, spreading, deciduous shrub or small tree prized for its ever-changing colors, season after season. Emerging coppery orange-pink with green veins in spring, the deeply cut, 5-7-lobed leaves gradually change to purplish red with red veins in summer and then turn back to orange-pink in fall. Slow-growing, this Japanese Maple features an elegant and gracefully arching habit. Architectural, it is ideal for small gardens or patio containers.
Maple trees belong to the Sapindaceae family, which includes several popular ornamental trees such as Japanese Maple(Acer palmatum), Sugar Maple (Acer saccharum), Golden Rain Tree (Koelreuteria paniculata), Silver Maple (Acer saccharinum), and Horse Chestnut (Aesculus hippocastanum).
