This stunning deciduous shrub exhibits a multi-stemmed, vase-like habit, reaching a height of 10-15 feet. Showing incredible seasonal changes, it thrives best in zones 5-8 and withstands cool, temperate conditions. It dazzles with light green foliage adorned with distinctive creamy-white veins that take on a vibrant orange or red hue in the fall. The shrub prefers well-draining, slightly acidic soil and can be planted in part sun to partial shade. While not particularly deer-resistant, its ornate lobed leaves and manageable mature height make it a standout ornamental choice. This Japanese maple cultivar does not produce significant fruit but is prized for its intricate leaf pattern and stunning seasonal transformations.
