The story

Coral bark, gold leaves.

The coral bark maple. Young stems turn bright coral-red in cold weather, so it does its best work in winter. Leaves come in yellow-green in spring and go gold in fall.

Light

Morning sun, afternoon shade. Winter sun brightens the bark.

Water

Water weekly the first two years and in drought.

Planting

Spring or fall, root flare at the soil line. Rich, well-drained soil; mulch, but not against the trunk.

Color in February, when the rest of the garden has none.
