The colour at this time is soft yellow-green with the tips of the lobes a beautiful vibrant red. The summer foliage is deep green with colours changing to a brilliant yellow, orange-gold and crimson red in the autumn.The medium sized leaves have seven lobes which are ovate and taper to tender tips. The young shoots are bright red. This is not a tall growing, but forms a round plant up to 3 mtr ( 10ft) tall and wide.
