About this plant
Acer japonicum 'Shojo no Mai', also known as the Dancing Girl Japanese Maple, is a small deciduous tree prized for its intricately lobed leaves and stunning seasonal displays. In spring, its foliage emerges with shades of green, soon transitioning to vibrant autumn hues ranging from fiery red to orange. This cultivar is particularly noted for its graceful, delicate leaves and compact growth habit, making it an excellent focal point for smaller gardens, patios, or shaded landscapes. Acer japonicum 'Shojo no Mai' thrives in areas with dappled sunlight and offers year-round beauty with textured branching complementing its seasonal foliage.
