Though the leaves of this beauty emerge and stay green through the warms seasons, with the arrival of cooler temperatures in fall they turn to shades of gold, orange and/or red.

The Green Leaf Japanese Maple tree is an upright, broad, rounded tree with a slow to moderate to fast growth rate, typically adding 1-2 feet per year reaching a mature height of 15-20 feet. Factors like soil, sunlight, and water can influence the overall size and growth rate of this tree. Pruning can help maintain a desired size and shape, but attempting to drastically restrict height is not recommended. Though naturally lower-branched, as the tree grows lower branches can be removed to expose more trunk and appear more tree-like.
