Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Ori Zuru Japanese Maple is a variegated cultivar of maple that appears on the leaves. This variety of Japanese maple is a unique tree for your landscape or container garden as the bark can be striped. Ori Zuru Japanese Maple has white and pink variegated leaves that add a splash of color to the landscape. Fall colors are bright reds. As with most variegated cultivars, it needs afternoon shade or dappled shade all day for best performance. Prune any reversions out, as well.
This upright maple has variegation ranging from margins of hot pink to patches of pastel pink. The bark has a tendency to develop striped variegation. Variegation is reminiscent of 'Asahi zuru'
