Kiyohime Dwarf Small Leaf Japanese Maple, Bonsai Starter Tree - Live Plant

A beloved dwarf Japanese Maple prized for its compact growth habit, dense branching, and vibrant seasonal color. ‘Kiyohime’ emerges in spring with bright green leaves accented by attractive reddish margins, creating a striking contrast that lasts through the early growing season. Its naturally low, spreading form develops into a graceful, layered canopy that is wider than it is tall, making it an excellent choice for borders, foundation plantings, containers, bonsai, and small garden spaces. During autumn, the foliage transforms into brilliant shades of orange, crimson, and scarlet, providing a spectacular display of fall color. Its manageable size and elegant form have made ‘Kiyohime’ one of the most popular dwarf Japanese Maples among collectors and landscape enthusiasts.
