Acer palmatum (Japanese Maple) 'Going Green'
Distinguished by its vibrant green foliage that maintains its fresh hue throughout summer before transforming into golden yellow tones come autumn, this Japanese maple brings reliable colour to the garden. Its broad, palmate leaves create a lush canopy with excellent sun tolerance compared to many other maples, making it more versatile for sunny positions. The upright yet spreading habit develops into an attractive rounded form, perfect as a specimen tree or for adding structure to mixed borders. Particularly valued for retaining its leaf colour even in brighter conditions, it offers gardeners a resilient option that still delivers the elegant form and seasonal interest expected from these ornamental trees.
