The result is an absolutely beautiful, lush and exotic-looking upright tree with a rounded umbrella-shaped canopy reaching 15 to 20 feet tall and nearly as wide when growing in the ground and half that size in containers. The new leaves in spring emerge a bright lime green deepening to a forest green throughout the summer. Breathtaking shades of yellows, oranges and reds come with the arrival of coller temperatures in fall. Hardy and easy to grow in USDA Zones 5 through 9, withstanding temperatures to -20F and thriving in sun or part shade, Yama Kagi is sure to be a striking figure and conversation piece in the landscape.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLandscape \u0026amp; Garden Uses\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eTo showcase its magnificence and beauty, the Yama Kagi Japanese Maple is best used in the landscape as a focal point specimen to draw attention to a specific area of the home or landscape.
