Hot Chana Japanese maple experiences dramatic color changes throughout the growing season. Its foliage emerges bright red; over time, the interior foliage softens to a dusty green, but the tips stay red. In the fall, the red makes a triumphant return. Its color show certainly turns heads! As an own-root variety (instead of a tree trunk that is grafted onto the roots of a different tree), it requires less worry. It adds a striking, low-maintenance focal point to any landscape.
Top three reasons to grow Hot Chana Japanese maple:
- Year-round color changes
