'Tamukeyama' Japanese Maple

(Acer palmatur var. dissectum 'Tamukeyama')

Grown for its attractive, fine-textured maroon foliage and "weeping" growth-habit - Perfect as an accent planting in the border or in a large container on the deck or patio.

 

One of the very few Japanese Maples which may be planted in ALL-DAY SUN in our area, as well as in shady spots.

 

'Tamukeyama' grows a bit taller and is more sun-tolerant than the better-known 'Crimson Queen' Weeping Red Japanese Maple.

 

Leaves turn brilliant reds and oranges before dropping for Winter.

 

Weeping growth habit to 6-8' tall and wide.

Expect 6" or more growth a year.

 

Plant in sun to light shade.
