The 'Butterfly' japanese maple is known for its variegated foliage that is edged with pink when it emerges in the spring. It is a semi-dwarf variety that will reach 8-12' tall and 6-8' wide at maturity. Creamy-white portions of the leaves will turn magenta in the fall.
This columnar variety produces beautiful white flowers in the spring, and bear golden yellow fruit that ripens in mid-September. The apples on the 'Golden Sentinel' tree are firm and sweet, and they are perfect for cider, baking and eating. It grows to be 10-12' tall and about 2' wide. Does well when paired with its sister variety, the 'Scarlet Sentinel'.
