Description
'Sango-Kaku' coral bark Japanese maple is a deciduous, small to medium-sized tree in the Sapindaceae (maple) family, This cultivar is noted for its coral-red bark that is particularly showy in the fall and winter after the leaves drop. Japanese maples are native to southeast Korea and central and south Japan. The genus name Acer is Latin for sharp and palmatum means shaped like a hand, referring to the shape of the leaves.
Coral bark Japanese maple is a slow- to moderate-growing woody tree. Plant it in full sun to partial shade and in moist, well-drained soil. It tolerates a range of soil types including sand and heavy clay. The foliage will retain a light green-yellow color through spring and summer emerging on red bark , and in fall the leaves will turn bright yellow. The color intensifies in cold weather to almost salmon, and although it produces its best color in full sun, new foliage may scorch. This cultivar is drought tolerant but It won't tolerate wet sites or sites where extreme fluctuations in soil moisture are common. Good soil drainage is essential.
