Acer Palmatum 'Autumn Glory'
Common Name: Autumn Glory Japanese Maple
Acer palmatum ‘Autumn Glory’ is a dependable upright Japanese maple selected for its excellent fall color and strong garden performance. Leaves emerge fresh green in spring, remain clean through summer, and turn brilliant shades of crimson, scarlet, and orange in autumn, often coloring evenly across the canopy. The foliage is palmate with gently divided lobes, giving the tree a refined yet substantial texture. ‘Autumn Glory’ develops an upright to rounded habit with balanced branching and moderate growth, making it a versatile specimen for a wide range of landscapes. Best grown in partial shade (tolerates more sun in cooler climates), it prefers moist, well-drained, slightly acidic soil and protection from hot afternoon sun and drying winds. Hardy in USDA Zones 5–8. Mature size: Width: 12–18 ft Height: 15–20 ft Ideal for specimen planting, lawns, woodland edges, courtyards, and Asian-inspired landscapes, Acer palmatum ‘Autumn Glory’ is valued for its reliable growth, clean summer foliage, and outstanding autumn display.
