Acer palmatum ‘Peaches and Cream’
Japanese Maple - Peaches and Cream
What a wonderful variegated Japanese Maple! New spring foliage emerges peachy-white with dark green veins and rose tips. By the summer, the peachy-pink base transforms to a more creamy-white while retaining their green veins well throughout. Colours of yellows, oranges and reds are displayed in the fall. Grows 8′ high by 5′ wide in a 10 year period.
