Acer palmatum 'Mellow Yellow'
Rare Japanese Maple Tree

Zones 5-9

‘Mellow Yellow’ is a rare upright-growing Japanese maple that brings cheerful color to the garden throughout the seasons. A chance seedling of the popular ‘Orange Dream,’ this selection shines brightest in spring when it leafs out with super bright yellow foliage. As summer progresses, the upper leaves soften into a glowing yellow-white, creating a refreshing contrast in the landscape.

When autumn arrives, ‘Mellow Yellow’ puts on a brilliant show of bright orange-gold, making it a true four-season standout. With its balanced, upright habit, this cultivar is expected to reach about 10 ft tall by 10 ft wide in 10 years, making it an ideal specimen tree or focal point in the garden.

Collectors and gardeners alike will appreciate the rare beauty of ‘Mellow Yellow’—a Japanese maple that lives up to its name with vibrant, mellow tones that delight year-round.
