Acer palmatum 'Aureum'
Yellow Japanese Maple Tree

Zones 5-9

Acer palmatum ‘Aureum’ is a striking Japanese maple cultivar prized for its bright, golden-yellow foliage. This slow-growing, small deciduous tree typically reaches 10 feet tall and wide in 10 years, making it ideal for smaller gardens or as a focal point in a landscape. In spring, its delicate leaves emerge a soft yellow-green, maturing to a rich golden hue that persists throughout the growing season. In fall, the foliage deepens to shades of orange and red, creating a spectacular autumn display. ‘Aureum’ thrives in partial shade, where its leaves are protected from sun scorch, and prefers well-drained, slightly acidic soils. Its elegant, layered form and brilliant color make it a standout choice for adding texture and seasonal interest to any garden.
