'Fjellheim' Japanese maple
Acer palmatum

'Fjellheim' Japanese maple 'Fjellheim' comes in a size anyone can find room for. In spring, small red flowers bloom against lime-green leaves that stay bright through summer. By fall, leaves change to clear yellow with a hint of orange. When winter hits, 'Fjellheim' brightens cold gray days with its coral red bark and stems.
