Seiryu Japanese Maple is a deciduous tree that is unique among Japanese maples for its upright growth habit. Its finely dissected green leaves have a lace-like appearance and turn vibrant shades of red and orange in the fall. Grows best in rich, moist, slightly acidic well-drained soils. Prefers full sun in cooler climates, but needs afternoon shade in southern areas.
