Acer shirasawanum 'Aureum' is a slow-growing, deciduous tree celebrated for its luminous, fan-shaped foliage. In spring, the leaves emerge a brilliant chartreuse-yellow, often edged in red, before softening to a refreshing yellow-green in summer. This upright-rounded specimen reaches up to 20 feet, making it ideal for small gardens or as a focal point. It thrives in moist, well-drained soil and prefers protection from intense afternoon sun to prevent leaf scorch.
