The name 'Ukigumo' translates to \"floating clouds\" in Japanese, perfectly describing the appearance of the leaves. The palmate foliage emerges in spring with a stunning combination of green, cream, white, and pink tones, with irregular variegation patterns that make each leaf unique. Throughout the growing season, the leaves display a constantly changing palette of colours, with some leaves showing predominantly green centres with cream margins, whilst others exhibit pink and white splashes. In autumn, the foliage turns brilliant shades of orange and red. This slow-growing variety develops an elegant, upright habit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eOther benefits:\u003c\/b\u003e exceptional variegated foliage, constantly changing colour display, unique specimen tree, outstanding autumn colour\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWildlife attraction:\u003c\/b\u003e bees, small birds for seeds\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eHeight \u0026amp; spread (approx.) at 10 years:\u003c\/b\u003e 2m x 1.5m\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePosition:\u003c\/b\u003e partial shade to dappled sunlight; requires protection from intense sun and strong winds\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSoil pH:\u003c\/b\u003e adaptable to most soils; prefers neutral to slightly acidic conditions\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMoisture:\u003c\/b\u003e consistent moisture essential; mulching beneficial; avoid waterlogged conditions\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWinter hardiness:\u003c\/b\u003e fully hardy to -25°C\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cedar Nursery Trees","offers":[{"title":"80-100cm 10 litre","offer_id":55604109803898,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0320\/6758\/4138\/files\/Acer-palmatum-Ukigumo.jpg?v=1776243183","url":"https:\/\/www.landscaping.co.uk\/products\/acer-palmatum-ukigumo-pv","provider":"Cedar Nursery - Plants and Outdoor Living","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
