Acer palmatum ‘Kotobuki’ – Rare Pink Variegated Japanese Maple Zones 5–9 ‘Kotobuki’ is a striking and rare dwarf Japanese maple introduction from Japan, prized for its vivid pink variegation and compact, dense form. This standout cultivar brings an entirely new level of color intensity to variegated maples. In early spring, ‘Kotobuki’ leafs out with bright pink and white variegation layered over a green background. Compared to similar varieties, this selection carries significantly more pink—often so intense that new stems emerge in bright pink as well. A second flush of growth in mid-summer delivers even stronger pink tones, extending the season of interest well beyond spring and making it a true focal point in the garden. With a naturally dense, dwarf habit, ‘Kotobuki’ typically reaches around 6 ft tall and 5 ft wide in 10 years. Its compact size makes it an excellent choice for containers, patios, and small garden spaces. In fall, the display continues with vibrant shades of orange to red, accented by lingering pink variegation. Key Features: Exceptional pink and white variegation—more intense than similar cultivars Bright pink new growth and stems Strong secondary flush with enhanced pink color Dense dwarf habit, ideal for containers and small spaces Vibrant orange to red fall color with pink highlights Pro Tip for Maximum Color:Pruning in late winter to early spring (just before leaf-out) can enhance pink variegation. Regular spring pruning encourages pronounced pink “candy-striping” along older green bark, adding unique winter interest. A bold and collectible Japanese maple that delivers color, structure, and rarity—perfect for enthusiasts looking for something truly different. 📦 Important Notes: Sold as is.
