Description: Full Moon Maple, Acer japonicum, Tree Seeds Hardy, Adaptable, Easy to Grow, Bonsai, Brilliant Fall Colors, Cold Tolerant For those new to the fascinating and addicting study of Japanese Maple, it would make sense that the Acer japonicums would be the main group of Japanese Maples, but they're not. The Japonicums are a smaller group of mostly sturdier trees. They tend to have roundish and usually fairly large leaves. They are notable for the fall color which is generally a brilliant display of orange, gold, crimson, etc all on the same tree if not the same leaf. Known as the Full Moon Maple, this outstanding species and its cultivars are prized by gardeners all over the world. Full Moon Maple has deeply lobed leaves, crimson autumn color, and plenty of small, reddish flowers in spring. It can be grown as a small tree or multi-stemmed shrub. Its growth habit is mounded, bushy, and spreading. This beautiful tree makes a great specimen plant and is very hardy.
