Acer palmatum is a deciduous tree grown for its brilliant fall color with shades of red, purple, orange, and for its multi-stemmed branching structure. Primarily used as a specimen tree, it can also be used as an understory planting, or screening. It prefers part sun to light shade, especially in hot climates. Requires consistent moisture and is not highly drought-tolerant until well-established. Prefers slightly acidic, organic-rich, well-drained loams. Deer-resistant. Fire-resistant. Cold hardy to -10°F.
