Acer shirasawanum 'Autumn Moon'
Autumn Moon Full Moon Japanese Maple
Zones 5-9
Acer shirasawanum 'Autumn Moon' is a spectacular tree when given the proper setting in the garden. In most gardens, it is recommended to give protection from the hot afternoon sun for best growth. Some morning sun will peak the colors. 'Autumn Moon' was a chance seedling that was selected and introduced by JD Vertrees, who wrote the original book on Japanese maples. The spring color is a bright salmon pink that malts across the bright green full moon leaves. 'Autumn Moon' may reach 6-8 ft in height and width in 10 years. Fall color on 'Autumn Moon' turns oranges to red.

Fantastic specimen. The peachy/salmon/coral spring colors leafing out turn gradually to a neon chartreuse, then you get a splash of orangey-red for the summer flush. The fall display is like the reverse of spring. Can’t say enough good things about this tree.
If it has good drainage and adequate nutrition it’ll grow and show well. Very susceptible to leaf drop if the roots stay wet. If all your leaf tips brown and it starts to drop leaves, your substrate isn’t draining quickly enough.
