Bower & Branch Landscape Design Tip: 

Give Hana Matoi morning sun and afternoon shade in warmer climates to protect its variegated foliage and maintain color vibrancy. Plant in rich, well-drained soil with consistent moisture, and mulch to keep the root zone cool. Pruning should be light and focused on refining the shape in late winter. Because the foliage is so unique, pair this tree with understated companions so its color story does not compete for attention. Stones, moss, and evergreen textures make perfect partners.

Why Plant Hana Matoi Laceleaf Japanese Maple?

Hana Matoi is one of the most striking laceleaf Japanese maples available. Its fine, cascading foliage is richly variegated, with every leaf touched by splashes of pink, burgundy, cream, and green. No two leaves look exactly alike, giving the entire tree a painterly, handcrafted look. Through spring and summer, the mound shimmers in rosy tones, and as the season progresses, the colors deepen and shift. In fall, the tree brings another wave of warm pink-red glow. Compact, graceful, and incredibly ornamental, Hana Matoi is a living work of art for gardens that crave elegance and personality.

How to use Hana Matoi Laceleaf Japanese Maple in the landscape?

Plant Hana Matoi where its detail and texture can be appreciated up close, such as along a garden path, beside a patio, near water features, or in rock gardens. Its cascading form softens hard edges and creates a sense of calm and flow. Use it as a single specimen in a small planting bed or pair it with dark evergreens, boulders, or simple groundcovers for an elevated, Zen-inspired look. Hana Matoi shines when placed where the sun can illuminate its variegation without scorching its delicate leaves.

How Does Shipping Work?

Bower & Branch Trees, the real BIG trees, don’t fit in a box! Our big trees, sizes XL and bigger, require expert delivery and care, that means our extra-large trees are shipped on Bower & Branch trucks. We are the only ones who know how to ship our big and bigger trees and plants with tender loving care. We deliver your trees and plants directly to you. Ask Bower & Branch about planting services – we'd be happy to assist in installation.

*For Big trees and Shrubs, Size XL and bigger: Review our Seasonal Shipping Timelines and Policy here.

Your trees and plants are grown across the United States at various Bower & Branch Growers. Depending on your location, your plant orders may be shipped from various locations. Please expect orders with multiple items to be delivered over a number of days as a result. Orders made up of numerous items or selections will not arrive at your home on the same day.

Shipping Delays:

From time to time, Bower & Branch Growers may determine to delay order shipment based on various factors for plant health. Weather in your region, as well as, where your plants are grown, is always considered when shipping. Extreme weather conditions may delay some or all of your order. Bower & Branch allows our Growers to make final shipping decisions based solely to benefit your trees and plants’ health and success.

How Does Sizing Work?

The size of our trees have nothing to do with the container size like you may find elsewhere–big doesn't mean just height - it’s also vigor, age, and overall health. Other online retailers are going to tell you that a plant is a seven gallon, that means nothing to your tree or plant (or you.)

Our trees for sale online are graded on large, x-large, and even bigger sizes. This is because our trees are sized by their age—the higher the letter, the more mature the tree. The age determines the trees’ overall height, size of the trunk and the overall branch density.

All of these characteristics are what you should be looking for when choosing a tree for immediate impact and instant curb appeal. Our extra-large tree and plant sizes are sure to wow you and your neighbors!
