New growth emerges in spring with a soft green hue edged in red, maturing to a rich green through summer before shifting to striking orange and red tones in autumn. Its compact, architectural habit makes it a standout specimen for small gardens, patios, and container growing.\u003cbr\u003e\nThis dwarf maple works beautifully as a focal point in mixed borders, rock gardens, or large planters where its sculptural form can be appreciated up close. It grows at a slow to moderate rate, developing a broad, rounded canopy over time, and responds well to occasional light pruning to maintain shape. Whether used as a specimen tree or an accent in a courtyard, Mikawa Yatsubusa offers year-round ornamental interest.\u003cbr\u003e\nSpecies: Acer palmatum\u003cbr\u003e\nVariety: Mikawa Yatsubusa\u003cbr\u003e\nType: Deciduous shrub or small tree\u003cbr\u003e\nPlant_Habit: Dwarf, compact, densely layered\u003cbr\u003e\nSun: Full sun to partial shade\u003cbr\u003e\nSoil: Moist, well-drained, slightly acidic\u003cbr\u003e\nDays_to_Harvest: Not applicable\u003cbr\u003e\nZones: 5 to 9\u003cbr\u003e\nGermination: Not applicable\u003cbr\u003e\nSowing: Not applicable\u003cbr\u003e\nSpacing: 4 to 6 feet apart\u003cbr\u003e\nNotes: Ships as a live plant in a 2.5 quart container\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67664710566024,"sku":"NLNG-078","price":153.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0717\/4648\/6408\/files\/download_2c8f2ea0-58f1-4e6e-938d-4888fc57676f.png?v=1791897925","url":"https:\/\/www.natesgardensupply.com\/products\/2-5-qt-live-plant-mikawa-yatsubusa-dwarf-japanese-maple-tree","provider":"Nate's Garden Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
