About
Acer palmatum 'Bihou' is distinguished by bright yellow bark that becomes particularly vivid in winter, with orange-tinged tips at branch ends transitioning to butter-yellow lower down. Spring foliage emerges green with bronzed tips; summer leaves remain rich green, then turn bright yellow in fall, creating striking four-season interest when bark and foliage color align. The cultivar exhibits an upright, vigorous growth habit, typically reaching 8-10 feet tall and wide within 10 years. According to Gardening With Maples, 'Bihou' requires excellent drainage and benefits from planting high (4-6 inches above grade) to prevent waterlogging, particularly in clay soils; it performs best with morning sun and afternoon shade, especially in warm climates, and is hardy to USDA zones 6-9.
