Known for its brilliant golden foliage and resilience in the summer heat, this variety adds a bright, uplifting presence to landscapes, making it ideal for rock gardens, courtyards, urban settings, or containers. 'Summer Gold' features distinctive, 7-lobed leaves that emerge in spring as soft yellow-green with red edges, held on striking red petioles. As the season progresses, the leaves mature into a vibrant golden hue, which intensifies in full sun, and in the fall, they transform into stunning shades of orange and red. The tree also produces inconspicuous reddish-purple flowers in spring, followed by red, winged samaras later in the season. This Japanese Maple grows at an intermediate rate of 12-18 inches per year, reaching approximately 9 feet tall and 4 feet wide in 10 years. Its dense, vase-shaped canopy and manageable size make it a versatile addition to any garden. 'Summer Gold' thrives in sun to partial shade and is particularly well-suited to USDA hardiness zones 5-9. Unlike other light-leaved Japanese Maples, it resists leaf scorch in the summer sun, making it an excellent choice for warmer climates. It prefers rich, moist, slightly acidic, well-draining soil, and benefits from regular watering, especially during dry periods. Mulching at the base helps retain moisture and protect the roots. This variety is not only beautiful but also practical, offering drought, heat, and pollution tolerance once established. It provides habitat for birds, attracts pollinators, and adds vibrant color to the landscape for three seasons of the year. Bring home Acer palmatum 'Summer Gold' today and enjoy the stunning color and resilient nature it brings to your outdoor space.
