Acer palmatum 'Kandy Kitchen'

An upright, dwarf Japanese Maple. 'Kandy Kitchen' originated as a witches broom mutation. This variety is always popular because of its bright cherry-red color in spring. The summer color fades to bronze-red but new bright red growth will appear in midsummer, creating a wonderful contrast with older leaves. The fall color is bright scarlet red. Discovered by Joe Stupka of Stupka Nursery in Pennsylvania.
