‘Lion Heart’ is a distinctive weeping Japanese maple with a more upright growth habit, making it a versatile choice for both compact spaces and broader landscapes. The finely cut foliage bursts forth in spring as an intense reddish-pink, gradually maturing to a bronze-green hue during summer. By autumn, the leaves transform into a dazzling display of bold orange and crimson tones, offering multi-season visual interest. This cultivar’s graceful branching structure and unique seasonal colour changes make it a stunning focal point in gardens or as a specimen tree in large containers.
