Comments: It's
a hot vine maple...a real “wow” plant! Acer circinatum 'Pacific
Fire's blazing red bark displays a waxy sheen that literally glows in
the winter landscape, putting most of the other “red barks” to
shame. During the spring and summer, fiery twigs and branches peek
through large yellow-green leaves and in autumn, brilliant yellow
foliage accentuates the contrast all the more. Like the native
species, growth habit tends to be multi-stemmed, but it can also be
trained as a single trunk specimen. Vine maples thrive in a wide
range of soil types and once established, are quite tolerant of dry
summers. Morning sun and some afternoon shade will bring out the best
fall color.
