Bower & Branch Landscape Design Tip: 

For the best color and overall health, plant Osakazuki in well-drained soil with consistent moisture. Morning sun with some afternoon shade is ideal in warmer climates, while cooler regions can offer more sun. Mulch the root zone to keep soil temperatures steady and protect shallow roots, keeping mulch away from the trunk. Prune lightly in late winter to remove crossing branches and refine the natural shape. If you want your fall landscape to feel unforgettable, place Osakazuki where the autumn sun can catch the canopy and make that red color glow even brighter.
