About this plant
Acer palmatum 'Kashima' is a graceful dwarf Japanese maple prized for its compact size and vibrant foliage. Its finely dissected leaves emerge a bright yellow-green in spring, maturing to lush green during the summer, and transitioning into warm tones of gold and orange in autumn, offering seasonal interest. Ideal for small gardens, containers, or as bonsai due to its slow growth habit, 'Kashima' adds elegance and texture to any landscape. Its striking leaf shape and modest stature make it a focal point in shaded outdoor spaces.
