The Japanese Maple tree is a beautiful Rose Square seating area centerpiece. The bright leaf color, trunks, and limbs are a striking visual addition to those enjoying the view of the Square. However, while beautiful, the Japanese Maple’s trunks and limbs are fragile due to their smaller size and thin bark and are subject to damage and splitting if stressed by climbers. To preserve the tree’s natural beauty, we ask you to ensure your children do not climb the Japanese Maple. As a gentle reminder, we have placed four signs (Please Do Not Climb The Trees) around the tree’s base. We thank you for helping us protect this beautiful asset that enhances Rose Square.
