Yoshino Momiji

Prune in late autumn after leaves fall or in early spring before sap rises. Never prune in midsummer; the Yoshino Momiji bleeds sap heavily, which can attract fungal infections.

While less famous than the cherry or the pine, the maple is a ubiquitous motif. The specific weeping form, likely the Yoshino type, can be recognized in classical art. yoshino momiji
