Acer Hot Chana™ Japanese Maple

Hot Chana™ Japanese Maple offers changing foliage color that brings interest to the garden from spring through fall. Bright red leaves emerge in spring before maturing to dusty green in summer, accented by fresh flushes of red new growth at the branch tips. As temperatures cool, the foliage turns brilliant scarlet red, creating a colorful fall display. This continual progression of color makes Hot Chana™ a standout focal point in the landscape throughout the growing season.

Unlike many Japanese maples, Hot Chana™ is grown on its own roots rather than grafted stock, offering added confidence in long term garden performance and winter survival. Its naturally upright, shrubby habit develops with minimal pruning, making it an excellent specimen tree for entry gardens, foundation plantings, mixed borders, and small landscape spaces. The colorful foliage pairs beautifully with evergreens, hostas, hydrangeas, and shade loving perennials.

Hardy in Zones 5 to 8, Hot Chana™ grows best in part sun to sun and well drained soil. Plants mature 8 to 15 feet tall and 4 to 6 feet wide. Avoid heavy pruning to preserve its natural shape, removing only damaged branches or making light shaping cuts when needed. This easy care Japanese maple rewards gardeners with dependable color and strong landscape presence year after year.
