Japanese Maple – Acer palmatum 240 Tree Seeds | Brilliant Fall Colors | Bonsai Favorite Hardy Ornamental Tree | Elegant Layered Branching | Landscape & Container

Grow one of the most iconic ornamental trees in the world. Japanese Maple (Acer palmatum) is treasured for its delicate, deeply lobed foliage and breathtaking autumn colors in shades of yellow, orange, crimson, and deep purple.

These are small-seeded Japanese Maple seeds. The mature tree is exactly the same as the large-seeded type — the only difference is seed size, not growth habit or beauty.

Reaching 15–25 feet at maturity, Japanese Maples develop a rounded to irregular canopy with graceful horizontal branching. Fast growing when young and slowing with age, they are ideal for bonsai training, container growing, patios, rock gardens, or as stunning focal points in ornamental landscapes.

In spring, subtle reddish-purple flowers bloom, followed by decorative samaras that mature in fall. The brilliant foliage display makes this tree a standout feature in any garden setting.
