Acer palmatum 'Asahi Zura'
4th June 2006
I don't know who wrote the worldplants.com entry on this pretty little variegated form, but all credit to them for the line "Fundamentalist Variegationists will envision the streets of Variegated Heaven lined with the "Rising Sun" Maple."
I have enjoyed it, but it suffered a bit during the summer - too much sun, not enough love and attention. Once the white parts start to burn, all variegated Acers look much the same!

Abundant rainfall and low temperatures through the summer have protected the leaves from burning, though the variegation has become imperceptible.
