The palmate leaves emerge red in spring and change to green by midsummer. Showy pink samaras standout against the green summer foliage. When other fall color has faded in northern landscapes, North Wind continues the show with dramatic tones or orange and scarlet. Best if planted in a protected location. Japanese maples prefer a shady location in the afternoon.
