Japanese Maple 'Kawahara Rose'

Japanese Maple 'Kawahara Rose' (Acer palmatum 'Kawahara Rose') is a cultivar distinguished by its rose-pink new growth in spring. The leaves emerge in delicate shades of pink and rose, often with a whitish cast, maturing to green in summer.

It forms a small, graceful tree with a spreading habit. Autumn color is typically yellow to orange. The spring display is its main ornamental feature, offering a soft, romantic color palette.

Site in partial shade to preserve the pink coloration of new leaves; too much sun can cause them to green up quickly or scorch.
