Acer pseudosieboldianum
Also called Korean Maple
Keijo Maple (Acer pseudosieboldianum), also called Korean maple, is a small deciduous tree or large shrub grown for its lobed leaves that turn red, yellow and orange in autumn. It is valued for cold hardiness, tolerating harsh winters better than Japanese maple.
Acer pseudosieboldianum, the Korean maple or purplebloom maple, is a species of maple. It is native to northeastern China, Korea, and the Russian Far East.
The Korean maple is cultivated as an ornamental plant. It withstands a cold climate better than the comparable Japanese maple. It has been grown in North Dakota, where it has done well in temperatures as low −43 °F. The species has been hybridized with Japanese Maple at the University of Wisconsin to produce a cold hardy tree with intermediate characteristics between the two parents. This hybrid has been named Acer pseudosieboldianum × palmatum 'Hasselkus' and marketed under the trade name Northern Glow®.
