Acer Amoenum 'Autumn Glory' (Autumn Glory Japanese Maple) is a stunning deciduous maple renowned for its brilliant autumn display. Its broad, deeply lobed green leaves provide a lush canopy throughout spring and summer before transforming into a breathtaking blend of crimson, orange, and gold in autumn. This striking seasonal colour change makes it a standout feature in any landscape, ideal for Japanese-style gardens, feature planting, or mixed borders.
In spring, Acer amoenum 'Autumn Glory' produces small reddish flowers, followed by winged samaras in late summer. It thrives in well-drained soil and prefers a sheltered position with dappled sunlight to achieve the most vibrant autumn tones. Its graceful growth habit and seasonal beauty make it a prized choice for gardeners looking to add year-round interest.
