Dwarf Japanese Maple - Live Plant

Japanese Maples and Evergreens Nursery: A Family-Owned Specialty Plant Haven

Nestled within our small family-owned nursery, we take pride in our specialized collection of rare and hard-to-find Japanese maple trees, conifers, evergreens, wisteria, and other unique plant offerings.

Red Japanese Maple: A Vibrant Foliage Delight

The Red Japanese Maple stands out with its captivating features. This deciduous tree thrives in full sun to partial shade, flourishing in USDA Hardiness Zones 5-8. Reaching a mature height of 20 feet and a 20-foot spread, it boasts well-drained soil requirements.

The real showstopper is the foliage. In the spring, the small leaves emerge in shades of orange and pink, transitioning to a brilliant orange hue in the autumn. The finely-divided, lacy leaves start in a deep red but gradually fade to a light green in early summer, only to take on a stunning golden, orange, or red color in the fall.

Sculptural Elegance and Growth Habits

The Red Japanese Maple is a small, elegant tree with delicate, upright branches, forming a visually appealing vase-shaped specimen. The multiple trunks add to the tree's picturesque appearance, especially when illuminated from beneath the canopy at night.

This cultivar of Japanese maple is prized for its captivating leaf color and interesting growth habit, making it a standout addition to any landscape.

Planting Recommendations

Now is the perfect time to plant your Red Japanese Maple. Cooler temperatures and increased rainfall create an ideal environment for a smooth transition. As long as the soil is not frozen solid 2 inches below ground level, the roots will readily establish and continue to grow throughout the winter. This head start will set your tree up for a productive spring and summer ahead.

Nurturing Your Red Japanese Maple

Adaptable to a wide range of soil conditions, the Red Japanese Maple thrives in well-drained, moist soils. It can tolerate both partial sun and full shade, though it will display its most vibrant colors in areas with ample sunlight.

When shipped, your Red Japanese Maple will arrive as a 2-3 foot tall container-grown specimen, ready to be planted and enjoyed for years to come.
