A true Dwarf reaching only 3-4 feet tall! 'Kamagata' Japanese Maple. Acer palmatum 'Kamagata' is a very delicate looking dwarf Japanese maple. Although it looks like delicate feathers of foam, it is actually very durable and hardy. It is both heat and cold tolerant and performs very well in full sun. As the leaves unfold in the spring the edges are tinted with red to rusty red. The early summer foliage becomes a bright light green. The fall colors are outstanding with brilliant shades of red with an occasional touch of yellow and orange. The leaves keep their color into late fall thus extending Kamagata's beauty. This cultivar is one of the few selected and named by Vertrees himself, who was very careful to avoid naming any but the most unique Japanese Maples.
