Notes
'Geisha Gone Wild' Japanese maple (Acer palmatum 'Geisha Gone Wild') is a tree for containers, specimen planting, and accents. It is hardy to USDA zone 5, or down to -20°F (-29°C). This plant likes full or part sun and average to moist, sandy, loamy, or clay soil. The finely dissected burgundy leaves show near-fluorescent pink and white, and fall color is purple and orange. It sits low on the menu for deer and rabbits. It grows slowly to about 6 feet tall in 10 years.
