A compact red Japanese maple with a rounded habit and a fall finish in ruby red and burgundy FEATURES: Deep ruby-red foliage that brings strong color contrast through the growing season Compact, rounded habit ideal for patios, courtyards, and smaller foundation beds Dense branching that keeps the canopy full and structured without heavy pruning Excellent focal tree for entry gardens and layered beds Performs well in part shade to help maintain rich leaf color and reduce scorch Fall color in ruby red and burgundy tones for a bold seasonal finish Hand Selected; Fresh from the Grower Ships on our trucks because the size of the tree - does not fit in a box. Bower & Branch Landscape Design Tip: Use one red focal tree per “scene.” Give it a quiet backdrop, deep green, charcoal stone, simple groundcover, and it will read refined instead of busy. If you want extra polish, repeat the red tone once at ground level with a burgundy-leaf perennial or shrub, then stop there.
