'Deshojo' Japanese Maple Bonsai
type: Product
description: Exclusive Tree Offer Japanese 'Deshojo' Maple Bonsai - Acer palmatum 'Deshojo' Nurtured with precision in our nursery at Zero Bonsai, this Japanese Deshojo Maple (Acer palmatum 'Deshojo') which is arguably the most dramatic and prized cultivar in the world of deciduous bonsai. World-renowned for its sensational seasonal transformation, this young tree wakes from winter dormancy with an explosive flush of brilliant, scarlet-crimson spring leaves that seem almost electric in their intensity. As summer approaches, the delicate five-lobed leaves gently transition into a soft, restful green, only to finish the year with a spectacular finale of rich orange and fiery red autumn hues before dropping to reveal its slender, delicate branch structure. Guiding the development of a young Deshojo Maple is a deeply rewarding art that relies on thoughtful, delicate care. It thrives in an outdoor position receiving bright morning sun to maximise its brilliant spring colour, paired with afternoon shade to protect its thin, papery leaves from scorch during summer heat. Keep its well-draining, organic-rich soil consistently moist—never waterlogged, but never allowed to dry out completely. Early development involves gentle spring shoot pinching to control internode length and promote fine branch ramification, ensuring that this fiery young maple matures into an exquisitely balanced, world-class bonsai display.
