The Red-Leaf Japanese Maple is a dwarf deciduous tree known for its stunning, deep red-purple foliage and attractive, rounded shape. The palmate leaves maintain a deep red-purple color throughout the summer before turning a vibrant red in the fall. Grows best in rich, moist, slightly acidic well-drained soils. Prefers full sun in cooler climates, but needs afternoon shade in southern areas.
