Acer japonicum Aconitifolium - Full Moon Maple
Acer Japonicon ‘Aconitifolium’, also called full moon maple is a shrub with a deciduous canopy. This lovely maple is a favourite for its foliage colour in autumn. Like most other Acer trees, it is known for its beautiful, outstanding shades of colours as the season's changes and has been recognized by the Royal Horticultural Society with the renowned Award of Garden Merit. More so, it grows as a spreading, bushy tree or big shrub with deeply lobed mid-green leaves that turn a spectacular scarlet-deep red colour in the autumn. It also produces masses of little red-purple blooms with winged seed-heads. It prefers a sunny or somewhat shaded location, as do most maples.
This fantastic variety of Acer also known as Japanese Maple provides a wealth of garden interest all year round. Ariadne is a semi-dwarf variety with a nice bushy spreading habit gradually forming a lovely small tree. It can also be pruned to keep it in a compact bushy form. Acer palmatum Ariadne is a multi-coloured maple in that it goes through several colour changes throughout the year. The array of colours is quite amazing with a final dazzling flare each autumn before the winter months take hold. Initially in Spring the fresh growth is a glorious mixture of marbled pinks orange and yellow with bright green veining throughout each and every leaf. Then the leaves take of a reddish-purple hue for the summer months whilst retaining the contrast of green veins. Finally the foliage over the entire tree will shade to a fiery orange before transitioning to red prior to leaf fall. For the very best leaf colour through the year Ariadne will do best in a sunny or partially shaded spot. Supplied in approx. 2-3 litre containers.
