In this video from Maplewood Gardens, the focus is on Acer palmatum 'Mikawa Yatsubusa,' a favorite Japanese maple known for its compact, bonsai-like appearance. This dwarf tree is celebrated for its unique layering habit and vibrant seasonal colors, transitioning from green with red petioles in spring to fiery orange-red in fall. Despite its small size—typically 3 to 4 feet in 10 years—it has a distinctive, dense structure that adds a special texture to gardens.
'Mikawa Yatsubusa' is highly popular among both novice and experienced gardeners, often being a top choice for its aesthetic appeal and versatility. It's heat-tolerant and works well in containers or as a bonsai. The video also highlights its role in the Maple Society’s “Maple of the Year” award and its effectiveness in various garden settings, including entrances and focal points. Overall, the 'Mikawa Yatsubusa' is praised for its exceptional beauty and durability.
