Its name, meaning \"Brocade River\" in Japanese, reflects the visual richness of its bark and evolving foliage. It is a sturdy tree with a strong personality, appearing much older than it truly is.<\/p>\n<h3 data-path-to-node=\"8\">Colours<\/h3>\n<ul data-path-to-node=\"9\">\n<li>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"9,0,0\"><b data-path-to-node=\"9,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\">Printemps :<\/b> : Leaves emerge in a bright, tender green, sometimes with slight reddish tints on the edges.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"9,1,0\"><b data-path-to-node=\"9,1,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\">\u00c9t\u00e9 :<\/b> : The foliage matures into a healthy, vibrant green.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"9,2,0\"><b data-path-to-node=\"9,2,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\">Automne :<\/b> : The season ends with a spectacular display of golden yellow to bright orange, sometimes turning crimson red depending on exposure.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 data-path-to-node=\"10\">Habit &amp; vigour<\/h3>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"11\">Upright and well-branched habit, naturally forming a graceful small tree.

Unlike many variegated Japanese maples, 'Nishiki gawa' handles sunlight quite well. In fact, exposure to sun encourages the development of a thicker, more textured bark and promotes more intense autumnal colors.<\/p>\n<h3 data-path-to-node=\"16\">Origin &amp; history<\/h3>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"17\">'Nishiki gawa' is a traditional Japanese horticultural selection. It belongs to the \"Arakawa\" group of maples, characterized by their rough, corky bark. While it has a long history in Japan, it remains a rarity in Europe because its propagation through grafting requires specific expertise to ensure the unique bark characteristics are successfully transmitted to the new plant.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Acer palmatum 'Nishiki gawa' is a captivating variety renowned for its rough, fissured bark that resembles an old pine or cork.
