Acer palmatum ‘Arakawa’

Acer palmatum is an unusual variety for the collector- known as the ‘rough bark maple’. Rough, corky bark appears after about 5 years becoming more prominent with age. A vigorous grower which can reach 15ft (4.5m). Gold and red autumn colour. Perfect for bonsai, as the trunk texture gives an aged appearance. Neutral to acid soil.

Newly potted February 2023.
