Acer palmatum Shaina Standard 30cm

Acer palmatum 'Shaina' is a striking, deciduous Japanese maple grafted onto a single stem to form a compact, rounded canopy of rich, deep red foliage that holds its colour beautifully through the seasons, turning brilliant crimson in autumn.

As a grafted standard, this plant's tidy, upright form makes it an ideal feature tree for pots, courtyards, or small garden spaces where height without bulk is desired. Best planted in a sheltered position with dappled shade and moist, well-drained, humus-rich soil.

Protect from hot afternoon sun and strong winds to keep its foliage vibrant and healthy. We find light pruning in late winter and mulching in spring to encourage healthy new growth. Avoid heavy pruning, especially with mature trees.
