Acer palmatum 'Beni shien' Variegated Japanese Maple

Acer palmatum ‘Beni Shien’ is possibly the most unique maple introduced in the last fifty years. Harold Johnson of Tallassee, Alabama introduced this wonderful variegated Japanese maple born of the south and then gave it a Japanese name that translates to red smoke. The deeply divided leaves emerge more purple than anything else, but will have cream markings starting at the base of the leaf and extending along the margins of most of the lobes. In summer the purple of spring will change to olive green in more shade or bronze in more sun. In late summer new red growth will pop out all over the plant. Fall color is usually orange or red. The really cool thing is that no two leaves will be shaped the same.

Beautiful Japanese Maples

I bought 7 Beni Shien starter trees because they change colors during the Spring, Summer and Fall!
The arrived well packaged and in perfect condition.
Planted them a month ago and they are all thriving.
They won’t grow like a mushroom, like most Japanese Maples, but will grow into miniature trees
that can be pruned into large Bonsais’. Great price,
Great Quality and Great Service!
