Katsura’s leaves emerge in spring very pale green, are yellowy green with red margins all summer and a brilliant display of red in autumn. One of the most toothsome of all the Japanese Maples.
N.B. When clipping several plants with the same tool, have a bucket containing a 5% bleach solution and swish your blades around for 30 seconds between plants to sterilise them. This will help avoid the chance of cross contamination of disease.
As with all woody plants, plant high, exposing as much of the taper at the base of the trunk as possible. Allowing soil to accumulate round the base of a tree can be fatal. Keep very well watered when first planted.
