Try this Japanese Maple for some landscape wow power in the form of great variegated foliage and outstanding, unique form. Ukigumo is Japanese for 'Floating Cloud Tree' which seems fitting given its layered, wide vase-like shape. Its coloration may contribute to this memorable name, too with leaves unfurling in a dizzying array of different blothches and combinations of green, white and pink that makes every 'Ukigumo' tree absolutely unique. It is a specimen that few will have and almost everyone will notice! 'Ukigumo' prefers a morning sun/afternoon shade location with moist, well drained soil to thrive.
