About

In the world of coral bark maples, this is an absolute standout. Providing a hard to describe light green thin leaf in Spring, this beauty finishes the season with an explosion of peach, pink, and gold to rival any other. Winter brings a beautiful coral bark, but interestingly different from Sango Kaku - there's definitely more peach and a lot more shine. It practically glows. This seems to be a bit more slow growing than Sango Kaku, but not dwarfish.
