Kiyo Hime Japanese Maple
Acer palmatum 'Kiya Hime'
Acer palmatum 'Kiya Hime' is a dwarf cultivar of Japanese maple with a compact and mounding growth habit. Its leaves are deeply lobed and have a serrated edge, with a bright green color in the spring and a rich golden-yellow hue in the fall. This cultivar typically grows to a height of around 3-4 feet with a similar spread, making it an excellent choice for small gardens, rock gardens, or as a specimen tree in a container. 'Kiya Hime' prefers partial shade and well-drained, acidic soil, and is hardy in USDA zones 5-8. Its small size and attractive foliage make it a popular choice for use in Japanese-style gardens, as a border or edging plant, or as a low-growing accent in a mixed border.
