The appeal of \u2018Kurenai jishi\u2019 lies in its density: short internodes, leaves set close together, and compact branching that quickly creates a \u201cfinished\u201d plant in a container.<\/p>\n
Spring <\/strong>: dark red to deep red (often the most spectacular phase).<\/p>\n<\/li>\n Summer<\/strong> : the red often shifts to purple \/ burgundy, sometimes red-green or even greener depending on heat and conditions.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n Autumn<\/strong> : bright orange to red.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n Stocky, dense habit, slow growth. Very regular structure and well suited to container growing.<\/p>\n Order of magnitude: often around 1.2 to 1.5 m tall for ~0.9 m wide at about 10 years (variable). Ultimately it can reach around 2 to 3 m depending on conditions and training.<\/p>\n Gentle sun \/ bright partial shade. Good light enhances the red tones, but protection from scorching sun and dry wind improves foliage quality, especially in a pot.<\/p>\n Several sources indicate that \u2018Kurenai jishi\u2019 was discovered and named by Masayoshi Yano (Japan); the name is generally interpreted as \u201cred lion\u201d.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" \u2018Kurenai jishi\u2019 is a dwarf Japanese maple with a very compact, very dense habit, often compared to a red \u2018Shishigashira\u2019. Its leaves are wavy \/ crinkled and held tightly along the shoots, giving a very structured silhouette. In spring, the foliage emerges deep red, then often shifts towards purple or red-green tones in summer. In autumn, it delivers a particularly decorative orange to red blaze.
