Acer palmatum 'Sumi-nagashi' is a small, upright, deciduous tree, vase-shaped when young, broader when mature, with palmate, deeply lobed, red leaves - purple-red in spring, bronze green in summer, crimson red in autumn. Inconspicuous flowers bloom in spring and are followed by winged fruits in autumn. Acer palmatum 'Sumi-nagashi' is adaptable to a wide range of soils, but thrives in fertile, organically rich, moist, well-drained soils. It prefers partial shade and best leaf colour is achieved in partial shade, but it can withstand full sun. Excessive exposure or lack of soil moisture may cause leaf scorch. It is resistant to frost, but needs to be protected from harsh winds. Low maintenance plant, needs little to no pruning. Japanese maple 'Sumi-nagashi' is a beautiful, red-leaved ornamental tree suitable for smaller informal, cottage, urban, and rock gardens. Perfect as a specimen and accent plant, excellent for beds and borders, and for growing in containers.

About Us

During this time, we have developed a large stock of trees, mature evergreen shrubs, conifers, Japanese maples, cedars and olives. What sets us apart from a generic garden center is solid unwavering focus on trees and some bigger shrubs. You will find thousands of trees, hundreds of varieties and lots of experts who are working on the nursery and more than willing to help you to choose a plant for you.

What you will not find is hot tubs, garden furniture and plastic garden gnomes. In a nutshell, trees is what we know and trees is what we do, and only trees (and some shrubs to go with the trees).
