Acer palmatum 'Aoyagi'

Acer palmatum 'Aoyagi' is a beautiful green leaf Japanese maple that is grown primarily for it stunning green bark - it can be used very effectively when planted with coral barked maples.  Acer palmatum 'Aoyagi' turns bright yellow in the fall which is fairly unusual for a Japanese maple (most are orange/red)  I planted a grouping of 3 Japanese maples with colored bark together: 'Aoyagi', 'Bihou', and 'Beni Kawa' - the combination of green, yellow and red bark was stunning!
