Acer palmatum 'Beni Shi En'
Purple Smoke Japanese Maple
Zones 5-9
Acer plamatum 'Beni shi en' leaves emerge in the early spring as purple with each leaf containing lime-green variegation that varies from leaf to leaf. As the leaves age, they turn green-red with a creamy variegation in the summer. When fall approaches, the leaves turn bright orange to red. A mature 'Beni shi en" Japanese maple will form a vase-like shaped tree that should reach 10-12ft in 15 years. 'Beni shi en' was discovered as an variegated sport off a heat tolerant Japanese maple in Alabama by Harold Johnston.
