Orangeola Dwarf Japanese Maple

Acer palmatum dissectum 'Orangeola'

This is one of the favorites among cut-leaf weeping dwarf Japanese maples. The deeply cut glowing orange to red new growth is a standout in spring. The foliage matures to deep green with a tinge of orange which is maintained through summer. Bright red fall color on very quickly weeping stems make this maple a standout. Orangeola is considered to be one of the more vigorous growing than many of the cut-leaf or dissectum types, it typically grows to 9' high.

These small maples prefer a moist, slightly acidic, moderately fertile soil with a deep mulch. Most varieties of Japanese maples prefer to be grown in partial shade with direct sun occurring during the cooler parts of the day. High fertility in soils where a dwarf Japanese maple is grown in full sun is said to lead to increased leaf scorch in summer. Plants grown under fair cultural conditions seem to have few problems.
