Description

Spectacular leaf shape and coloration distinguishes Manyo No Sato Japanese Maples from all others. It is an upright but broad tree that grows 6 to 8 feet tall and 4-6 feet wide in 10 years. We’re not sure the size after that, but not too much bigger. The striking variegated leaves with very deeply divided lobes emerge dark shades of purple to purple-red edged in lime green in spring, changing to mauve-red with green trim in summer when in part shade, or more green in full sun. That said, we suggest filtered sun or shade during the afternoon in hot-summer climates. With the arrival of cooler temperatures in fall the leaves turn to bright red and orange shades. High heat tolerance and unique coloration make Manyo No Sato an easy choice for those looking to add an unusually beautiful conversation piece to the garden.

Landscape & Garden Uses

To showcase its magnificence and beauty, the Manyo No Sato Japanese Maple is best used in the landscape as a focal point specimen to draw attention to a specific area of the home or landscape. That said, you can plant in groupings of three or use two to frame an entryway.

Suggested Spacing: At least 10 feet apart for space between trees

Container culture can extend the useful range of Japanese Maples. They are extremely easy to grow in containers, a practice taken to its most extreme form in the art of bonsai.

Note: One Japanese Maple can make a landscape…that is if you don’t overcrowd it with other trees and plants. Therefore, when selecting companions to plant under or around your Japanese Maple, make sure to select very low-growing shrubs or groundcover plants that won’t interfere at all with your tree.

Growing Preferences

Though delicate looking, Japanese Maples are actually very tough and long-lived trees. They are very easy to grow in the ground or in pots, planters and other containers.

In their natural habitat, Japanese Maples are understory trees, growing in dappled forest sunlight at the edges of woodlands. Ideally they prefer to be grown in similar conditions. That said, you can find a complete listing of our sun-tolerant Japanese Maple varieties here, of which Manyo No Sato is one (in cool summer climates). That said, we suggest some shade or filtered sun during the hotter afternoon hours in hot-summer climates.

Most any average garden soil will grow Japanese Maples. They prefer a moist but well-drained soil rich in organic matter. As with so many other ornamental plants and trees, constantly soggy or wet soil can be problematic. So make sure to plant your Japanese Maple in a well-drained site!
