About this plant
Acer palmatum 'Radiant' is a striking Japanese maple cultivar known for its vibrant, variegated foliage. New leaves emerge in spring with a stunning mix of creamy white and pale green, accented by pink highlights, providing a colorful focal point for gardens and landscapes. As the seasons progress, the foliage deepens into green tones while retaining its unique patterns, and autumn brings warm golden and orange hues. Compact and elegant, 'Radiant' is perfect for smaller gardens, containers, or as a feature in shaded areas where its intricate leaf color truly stands out.
