About this plant
Acer palmatum 'Prince Charming' is a striking dwarf Japanese maple cultivar perfect for smaller landscapes or container gardening. This delicate tree features finely lobed leaves that begin in shades of bright red-orange in spring, turning to green with darker veining as the season progresses, and culminating in stunning fall foliage hues of gold, orange, and bold red. Its compact stature and refined grace make it an excellent centerpiece or accent in shaded gardens. Ideal for adding texture and color to patios and mixed borders, 'Prince Charming' thrives with the right care and attention.
