Cultivar origin

Buchholz Nursery, Gaston, Oregon, USA

Discovered / selected by

Talon Buchholz

Acer palmatum 'Jubilee' is a reticulated Japanese maple selected and cultivated by Talon Buchholz of Buchholz Nursery in Gaston, Oregon. The originating nursery confirms his association with the cultivar, while specialist retailer MrMaple independently identifies Buchholz as its introducer. Its foliage emerges in spring with pink reticulation, then develops cream coloring, soft pink blushes, contrasting green veins, and chartreuse highlights. Autumn foliage turns brilliant crimson to scarlet red. The tree develops a relatively compact, upright habit with a broad canopy. Although both selection and introduction are attributed to Buchholz, neither the original selection date nor the first commercial introduction year is documented in the sources reviewed. Its seed parent, pollen parent, and any controlled hybridization remain unconfirmed. No cultivar-specific United States plant patent or registered trademark was established from the available evidence; this does not determine propagation rights or royalty obligations.
