  2. ABOUT The Sango Kaku Japanese Maple, also known as the Coral Bark Maple, is a captivating addition to any garden. Renowned for its striking coral-colored bark and vibrant foliage, this tree is a true showstopper that offers visual interest throughout all four seasons. Its upright, spreading form makes it an ideal centerpiece for garden design, providing a dynamic and changing landscape with each passing month. In this blog, we will explore the unique characteristics of the Sango Kaku, its seasonal displays, and tips on how to cultivate and showcase this remarkable tree in your garden.

  3. CORAL BARK One of the most distinctive features of the Sango Kaku Japanese Maple is its coral-colored bark, which intensifies in color during the winter months. As the leaves fall, the bark's vivid hue stands out against the stark winter landscape, providing a burst of color when most other plants are dormant. This vibrant bark remains a focal point even during the colder seasons, making the Sango Kaku a valuable ornamental tree for year-round interest.

  4. DELICATE, PALMATE LEAVES Sango Kaku leaves are another standout. In the spring, new growth appears in a bright yellow-green, giving the plant a fresh, vibrant appearance. The leaves change color throughout the season, from light green in the summer to a magnificent display of gold, orange, and crimson in the autumn. This seasonal color shift transforms Sango Kaku into a dynamic presence in the landscape, providing diverse views throughout the year.

  5. SEASONAL FOLIAGE The foliage of the Sango Kaku is equally impressive. In spring, the tree bursts into life with bright green leaves tinged with red edges. As summer approaches, the leaves mature to a soft green, offering a refreshing and tranquil canopy. Come autumn, the foliage transforms into a spectacular display of gold, yellow, and orange, creating a breathtaking contrast against the coral bark. This seasonal transformation ensures that the Sango Kaku is always the center of attention in any garden.

  6. ELEGANT FORM The Sango Kaku Japanese Maple's erect, spreading form lends beauty to its surroundings. It normally grows to a height of 15 to 20 feet and a spread of 15 to 25 feet, making it suited for a wide range of garden settings, including small urban gardens and larger landscapes.

  7. Ideal Growing Conditions SOIL This maple prefers well-drained, slightly acidic to neutral soil. It can adapt to various soil types, including loam, clay, and sandy soils, as long as they are well-draining. Amending the soil with organic matter can enhance its fertility and structure, promoting healthier growth. WATERING LIGHT Regular watering is crucial, especially during the tree’s first few years as it establishes its root system. The soil should be kept consistently moist but not waterlogged. Mulching around the base of the tree helps retain soil moisture and regulate temperature, reducing the frequency of watering. The Sango Kaku thrives in partial shade to full sun. While it can tolerate full sun, providing some afternoon shade in hotter climates will help prevent leaf scorch and maintain the tree's vibrant foliage. A location with morning sun and afternoon shade is often ideal.
