Orangeola' Japanese Maple Trees
Orangeola Japanese Maple trees (Acer palmatum 'Orangeola') are a beautiful and unique variety of Japanese maple. They are known for their distinctive orange-red foliage, which emerges in the spring and deepens in color throughout the summer. In the fall, the leaves turn a brilliant red before falling to the ground.
Orangeola Japanese Maple trees are relatively slow-growing, typically reaching a height of 6-10 feet and a width of 4-8 feet. They have a compact, upright habit with graceful branches. The trees are relatively low-maintenance, but they do prefer full sun to partial shade and well-drained soil.
To care for an Orangeola Japanese Maple tree, water it regularly, especially during the first year after planting. Fertilize the tree in the spring with a balanced fertilizer. Prune the tree lightly in the late winter or early spring to remove any dead or diseased branches, and to shape the plant.
Orangeola Japanese Maple trees are a beautiful addition to any landscape. They can be used as an accent plant, in foundation plantings, or as a specimen plant. The trees are also a popular choice for container gardening.

The plant reaches you with minimal damage- very safe and secure. We have been shipping plants like this for several years (plant are sometimes shipped in smaller pots for safety and ease of shipping). Most plants go dormant in fall and winter and will lose most of their leaves - looking dead and dry - very normal. They will flush out in spring.
We cannot send ship some plants and some sizes to California due to restrictions placed by department of agriculture.
