One of our most favourite, and probably best value Japanese Acers.
Acer ”Beni Maiko” (syn. Deshojo) has spring colour that is burning scarlet to fire red, combined with a semi dwarf growth habit that lends itself well to growing in a large tub or planter.
It is an extremely beautiful, sought after Acer that is renowned for its Beautiful Blood Red Spring and Autumn Foliage Colour. As summer progresses the older leaves turn green but the young shoots are tipped with burnished-red young leaves. It’s simply stunning and a dazzling addition to any Acer collection, ideal for an oriental style garden or patio planter perhaps, it really deserves a special position where it can be admired.
Ideal for creating a Japanese theme anywhere in your garden. Great in pots or containers, or planted in the ground mixed with other shrubs and acers. The name ‘Beni Maiko’ means “Red Haired Dancing Girl.”
Plant in moist but well drained soil in either full sun or partial shade away from cold winds.
Supplied in an approx. 2-3 litre containers
