Coral Bark Japanese Maple

The Coral Bark Japanese Maple is a stunning small ornamental tree prized for its vibrant red-pink bark, which glows brightest in winter when the branches are bare. In spring, it leafs out with delicate lime-green foliage, which turns golden-yellow in fall, creating year-round visual interest. With its upright, vase-shaped form and slow growth habit, it's perfect for entryways, small gardens, patios, and Asian-inspired landscapes. This cold-hardy and low-maintenance tree adds elegance, structure, and vibrant color to any setting.
