Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Catalina Yatsubusa Japanese Maple is a newer selection in the Mikawa Yatsubusa lineage. It has the same dense growth habit that creates layered tufts of foliage for a very unique look. The edges of the foliage can have irregular yellow to green variegation with splotches of a darker green. Catalina Yatsubusa seems to be more upright than some other Mikawa Yatsubusa selections and is expected to grow to around 6' tall in 10 years. Fall colors are oranges to reds.
