Acer palmatum 'Beni-maiko'

Acer palmatum ‘Beni‑maiko’ is a dwarf Japanese maple admired for its brilliant spring colour. New leaves emerge fiery red, shifting to pink‑red and then soft green as summer progresses, before finishing with vibrant autumn tones.

It grows well in sheltered, partially shaded positions with moist, well‑drained soil, making it ideal for borders, patios, or containers. A standout choice for bold early‑season colour in smaller gardens.
