Acer palmatum atropurpureum
RED JAPANESE MAPLE
- Unit price
- / per
Very sought-after plants! Red Japanese Maple trees are beautiful all-year round, with finely divided leaves, slender branching, and absolutely gorgeous red leaves all season, not just in the autumn. Spring and summer color is a deep wine red, and fall color is a vibrant bright red! In cooler climates, plants grown well in full sun or shade. In hot climates they do well given shade. The medium-sized tree is ideal for urban gardens, yet vividly-colored enough to stand out in a larger arrangement as well.
Type: Tree
Height: 3-4 meters. Plants can be pruned to remain as a small shrub, or left to grow to a small to medium sized tree.
Location: Sun or shade, depending on location (see above).
Hardiness zones: 5-10
Seeds per packet: 10
Soak the seeds for 12 hours before planting. Sow just under the surface of the soil and water in. First keep them at room temperature for 4 months. This helps break the phytohormones which inhibit germination. Then cover them with plastic to retain moisture, and then place in a fridge for 4 months. Be sure they stay lightly moist. Then bring them to approximately 21C, 70F for germination.
