This Japanese maple has rich purplish-red foliage that retains its deep color throughout the summer. In the fall, it showcases an excellent red hue. With its rounded, dense growth, this maple is an outstanding choice for adding vibrant color and structure to your landscape.

Best planted in a well-drained soil with high organic matter. Japanese maples are grown as specimen trees or multi-stemmed plants. Any pruning should be done in summer. Mulch well, but avoid heaping mulch against the stem. Most cultivars need full sun or light afternoon shade.
