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.

Another great looking tree from Mr. Maple. It’s taller than I was expecting too. Can’t go wrong with GGW.

A tree that deserves it rave reviews

I got a large 2 gallon of this tree, and it is growing very quickly in 7B morning sun. The colors are truly remarkable, as noted by other reviews, and it seems more stable than other pink/purple variegated types. This is the sort of tree you can put right in front of your house or on a corner for knock-out impact. The leaves are very unique in how they twist and dance, and it is truly beautiful.

Great looking plant

This tree arrived a couple of days after I ordered it. Even better than the pictures, the variegation is spectacular. The tree is fully 4 feet tall for a 1 gallon! The leaves are larger than I expected[ so hard to judge leaf size in the photos]. So great to have a dependable, quality nursery on the east coast[ I live in New Jersey]. I've ordered so many plants from Mr. Maple and they never disappoint. Great work folks.

Nice specimen of a tree that I received to Georgia. My tree arrived safely. Height was over 20 inches for 1 gallon plant. Can't wait to see the color changes with this one. First order along with three other one gallons.

Gorgeous jewel!

As always, wonderfully packaged and arrived in great condition. This is the 3rd Japanese maple I’ve ordered and couldn’t be more pleased. It came quickly and looked great, even in the heat of the Deep South zone 7b. I’ve ordered quite a few other plants from Mr. Maple and everything from prices, packaging, and to customer service are the best! I’m not quite sure if there was supposed to be a leader staked but I chose one and staked it myself. We’ll see how that goes. I’m waiting until the fall to get this baby in the ground. I can’t wait until it shows off in the fall and next spring. If you’re looking for affordable, quality, and hard to find plants, look no further! You can’t go wrong with Mr. Maple 🍁! Many thanks!!!!
