Golden glow...


Acer shirasawanum 'Aureum', also known as the Golden Leaf Full Moon Japanese Maple, is an absolute star throughout the growing season. It kicks off with clusters of small, red-purple spring flowers which develop into stunning lime-green leaves. Then, these leaves gently transform to vivid yellow in the bright sunlight of summer (see above) before turning to rusty orange and red in autumn.
