The Japanese Cutleaf Maple, Acer palmatum ‘Coral Bark,’ is showing off its beautiful colored bark at this time. This wonderful small tree has brilliant coral bark on the young branches, and over the past weeks, the color has greatly intensified. The color provides a wonderful focal point in the Arboretum to cheer us, even on a gloomy day.
You can find this specimen near the intersection of Estaugh and Medford Leas Way, on the Medford Campus.
