Product Description
Acer palmatum ‘Extravaganza’ is a truly distinctive deciduous shrub known for its finely cut leaves and remarkable colour variation. In spring, the foliage emerges in a brilliant bright pink, creating an immediate focal point in the garden. As the season progresses, the leaves develop into a unique blend of red, green and creamy hues, giving the plant a delicate, almost hand-painted appearance.
This compact Japanese maple is perfect for smaller gardens, courtyards or container planting on patios and terraces. Its graceful shape and finely textured foliage bring a sense of calm and refinement, making it a popular choice for both modern and traditional garden designs.
In autumn, Acer ‘Extravaganza’ continues to impress as the foliage transforms into warm, glowing shades, adding depth and colour late into the season. Its manageable size and slow growth make it easy to position and maintain, especially in sheltered spots where it can truly thrive.
