Acer palmatum 'Lileeanne's Jewel' Japanese Maple
Acer palmatum 'Lileeanne's Jewel'
Rare Red Variegated Japanese Maple
Zones 5-9
Acer palmatum 'Lileeanne's Jewel' is a brand new introduction with a rare variegation of pink and white on a bright cherry red and heavily divided leaf. Mid-summer colors are a green-red with pink and white variegation. It is estimated to get about 10-12 ft in 15 years. Fall colors are crimson reds infused with hot pink variegation. This selection is fairly heat tolerant as it has handled the sun of Simpsonville, SC, without burn to the variegation. The variegation appears fairly stable. However, since this is a new cultivar, we suggest avoiding heavy fertilizers. Any branches not showing variegation should be trimmed out.
This rare Japanese maple was found as a chance seedling by our friend, Johnathon Savelich, and named after his daughter, Lileeanne.
Limited Quantities Available !! As we have over a thousand cultivars of Japanese maples, we often do not have many of each cultivar. We recommend that you buy the Japanese maples you want immediately as we often sell out of certain selections.
I purchased a Lileeanne's Jewel 7 gallon a few weeks ago and man what a Jewel!!! I couldn’t get over how big the tree was when I opened the box! I have close to 90 Japanese Maple in my yard and it stands out over the crowd. I’m pairing Lileeanne's Jewel with a Hot Blonde.
It seems to be holding up under the middle Georgia Heat.
Beautiful variegated Maple
I have had this tree for a year. It has beautiful varigation of burgundy, light pink and white. It holds its colors during the spring, summer and fall. I have it in a pink pot that shows its color well. It is also in afternoon sun and does just fine. A slow grower and is definitely one of my favorites.
Beautiful plants and arrived in a great shape!
This is my second time to buy maple tree from them. They packed tree really excellent as they said. Trees came to me in perfect condition. Last 3 year I bought 4 trees from them, they are still growing strong. I have confidence that these two maple trees will follow the other 4. So far I don’t have any problem, so I don’t have any experience in support, but with their reputation, I don’t have a doubt they will work out with me to resolve it. Thank you MrMaple, I am really enjoying my maples.
