Japanese maples have a quiet presence that suits just about any garden. Whether they’re planted as a feature in a border or left to shine in a pot, they bring shape, colour, and a real sense of calm to your surroundings. If you’re looking to buy a Japanese tree, few are as versatile or well-loved as the Acer palmatum.

Through spring and summer, the foliage holds rich shades of red, green, or even purple depending on the variety. Once autumn arrives, those colours shift again with some turning fiery reds, and others fading into soft orange golds. However, it’s not just the colour that makes them stand out, though, the shape of a Japanese tree tends to be soft and open, with fine leaves that catch the light and move easily in the breeze.

If you’re looking to buy a Japanese Acer, it’s worth thinking about the spot or space you have available. These trees prefer a little shelter and do best in soil that stays mostly moist and drains well. Many varieties stay compact, which makes them ideal for smaller gardens, patios, or tucked-in corners that need a bit of structure, but we’re sure you’ll find a Maple Tree to suit any garden of any size.
