Acer palmatum ‘Ruby Star’ Japanese Maple

Description

This dwarf upright Japanese maple is highly prized for its incredibly cute, star-shaped foliage. Bright red in spring, the leaves turn greenish during summer. Then, a second flush of new bright red growth creates a striking contrast against the mature green foliage. Sold by some nurseries as ‘Beni hoshi,’ which means “red star,” but we prefer using the English translation.
