The Herbstfeuer Japanese Maple, also known as the Autumn Fire Japanese Maple, is a beautiful and popular cultivar of Acer palmatum. It is known for its stunning autumn foliage, which displays vibrant shades of red, orange, and yellow. This deciduous tree typically grows to a height of 10-15 feet and has a spreading, rounded form.

To care for a Herbstfeuer Japanese Maple, it is important to provide it with the right growing conditions. It thrives in partial shade to full sun, but it prefers protection from hot afternoon sun in warmer climates. The soil should be well-draining and rich in organic matter. Regular watering is essential, especially during dry periods.

Pruning is usually done in late winter or early spring to maintain the desired shape and remove any dead or damaged branches. Mulching around the base of the tree can help retain moisture and regulate soil temperature.
