    Acer Buergerianum ‘Naruto’ (Naruto Trident Maple) is a unique and striking deciduous tree, prized for its deeply lobed, curled leaves and stunning seasonal colour transitions. Its compact size and ornamental appeal make it a popular choice for small gardens, bonsai cultivation, and feature planting. In spring and summer, the foliage emerges bright green, with the distinctive curled leaf edges adding texture and depth. As autumn arrives, the leaves turn vibrant shades of orange, red, and yellow, creating a spectacular display.

    This hardy maple thrives in well-drained soil and full sun to partial shade, tolerating urban environments and various soil conditions. In late spring, it produces small clusters of inconspicuous yellow-green flowers, followed by samaras (winged seeds). Its naturally elegant form, coupled with its low-maintenance nature, makes ‘Naruto’ an excellent addition to any landscape.
