Crimson Queen Japanese Maple
Crimson Queen Japanese Maple is a superb low-branching, dwarf Japanese Maple with a delicate weeping effect. It is deciduous, meaning it will shed its leaves in fall but its foliage holds a beautiful red color throughout summer. Japanese Maples such as the Crimson Queen are well-suited for use as a specimen plant around water features, or on patios and entryways in containers. It is easy to see why this iconic tree has been revered around the world for centuries.
Its delicate and lacy cut-leaf foliage turns a beautiful crimson color, adding texture and color to your landscape. Popular in Zen gardening, Crimson Queen Japanese Maple Trees are low maintenance and surprisingly easy to care for. It can grow to be up to 10 feet tall and will thrive in partly shaded environments.
It tolerates full sun but too much sun exposure and you risk leaf scorch. This compact tree prefers slightly acidic, well-drained soil and its growing season is early spring when its leaves are most vibrant. Highly sought after for their ornamental appeal, there is no doubt that Japanese Maple Trees will continue to flourish in popularity for many years to come.
