Acer palmatum 'Shirazz' is a distinctive cultivar of Japanese maple known for its vibrant and variegated foliage, presenting a delightful array of pink, red, and green shades, with the colors intensifying in the fall. This deciduous tree is celebrated for its elegant and graceful structure, exhibiting a compact, upright, and bushy habit, making it an exquisite choice for smaller gardens, landscapes, or containers.

'Shirazz' usually attains a height of around 10-15 feet, thriving in partial to full sun conditions, but it appreciates some shade in the hottest parts of the day to prevent leaf scorch. It performs best in well-drained, moist, and fertile soils, displaying a preference for slightly acidic to neutral pH levels.

Beyond its striking foliage, 'Shirazz' contributes a unique aesthetic appeal through its layered branching pattern and its smooth, gray bark. It's a relatively low-maintenance tree, requiring minimal pruning to maintain its shape and remove any dead or diseased wood.

'Shirazz' is also known for its resilience to common pests and diseases, demonstrating a particular resistance to leaf spot. It’s a fabulous selection for creating a focal point in the garden, providing year-round interest through its evolving color palette and sophisticated architectural form.
