'Green Star' is a stunning Japanese maple, making it an excellent choice for adding both structure and beauty to your landscape. It's a slow grower, reaching a height of about 15 feet in approximately 20 years. Leaves emerge with florescent green shades that are cupped downward and slowly unfold, and in fall, they turn bright golden yellow accented by bold shades of orange. Prefers well-drained soil. Best in morning sun and afternoon shade. Protect from open, windy locations.
