    Atrolineare

    ‘Atrolineare’ is a Japanese maple with strap-like leaves (very narrow lobes), giving a graphic and elegant look. Budbreak is bright red, shifting to burgundy / purple by early summer, then becoming calmer, more greenish-purple towards the end of the season. Autumn often finishes in a vivid red. Upright, vase-shaped habit.

    Attaryi

    ‘Attaryi’ is a vigorous Acer japonicum, valued for its large green leaves and its flamboyant autumn colour. The foliage starts a soft, fresh green in spring, becomes a deeper green in summer, then turns in autumn into a very intense mix of orange, red and yellow. Its habit is upright and gains presence with age: an excellent choice to structure a garden while keeping a real late-season highlight.

    Aureum

    ‘Aureum’ is one of the most sought-after golden Japanese maples: its rounded “full moon” leaves open a bright yellow in spring (often with a faint pinkish edging or pink veins depending on conditions), shift to yellow-green in summer, then light up in orange and red in autumn. Its growth is slow, making it an excellent collector’s plant, well suited to carefully designed gardens and to growing in a large container.

    Autumn glory

    ‘Autumn Glory’ is a Japanese maple with bronze-green foliage through the season, selected for a particularly expressive finale: autumn colours move through yellow, orange, then vivid red, sometimes with several shades visible at the same time. Spreading, harmonious habit—excellent as a specimen plant.

    Autumn moon

    ‘Autumn Moon’ is an Acer shirasawanum (full moon maple) highly appreciated for its spectacularly nuanced foliage: in spring, the young leaves often take on salmon to orange tones, then shift to yellow-green in summer, before a very bright orange to red autumn display. Its small, bushy tree habit makes it perfect as a specimen, in a dappled-shade planting, or in a large container.

    ‘Beni hoshi’ (often sold as Ruby Stars) is a dwarf Japanese maple with an upright, compact habit and rounded foliage. It starts bright red in spring, then shifts to burgundy tones and sometimes greener notes in summer. Autumn finishes yellow to orange, sometimes very luminous. A very good choice for containers.

    Beni kagami

    ‘Beni kagami’ is a Japanese maple with red to purple foliage, with deeply cut and often glossy leaves that give an elegant silhouette. Spring starts orange-red to purple-red, summer deepens to a burgundy / purplish-brown, then autumn finishes with a very clear crimson red.

    Beni komachi

    ‘Beni komachi’ is a compact Japanese maple, appreciated for its very bright cherry-red spring flush. The foliage then becomes greener through the season, and autumn returns to a clear red. A collector cultivar that performs very well in a container as well as in a small garden.

    Beni otake

    ‘Beni otake’ is a Japanese maple from the linearilobum group: long, very narrow leaves that look like bamboo strips. Spring starts red, summer remains burgundy / purple (sometimes a little greener towards the end of the season), then autumn finishes crimson red. Upright habit, very graphic silhouette.

    Beni shichihenge

    ‘Beni shichihenge’ is a variegated Japanese maple, sought after for its colour shifts through the season: pink/red at budbreak, then cream and green marbling, with a possible return of pinkish tones on young shoots. Autumn usually finishes in warm shades (yellow, orange, sometimes red depending on conditions). Upright and elegant habit.

    Beni shigitatsu sawa

    ‘Beni shigitatsu sawa’ is a reticulated Japanese maple: the foliage shows a strong contrast between the leaf blade and the veins, with a very decorative pink/red, veined budbreak. In summer, the plant calms down (greener tones with the veining remaining visible), then autumn returns with orange to red nuances. Rather spreading habit, ideal as an accent plant.

    Beni tsukasa

    ‘Beni tsukasa’ offers one of the most refined spring palettes: young leaves in peach–apricot tones, sometimes salmon/pink, then turning green in summer. Autumn returns with orange to red shades. Softly upright habit, elegant silhouette—very well suited as an accent specimen or in a large container.
