Crimson Queen Dissected Japanese Maple, Dissected Japanese Maple
The beautiful dissected Japanese maple is a small deciduous tree from eastern Asia. The cultivar 'Crimson Queen' features lacy, deeply lobed, palmate (hand-shaped) leaves which are deep burgundy-red from spring through summer and turn fiery tones in fall. In winter, the stark gray branches and elegant, cascading habit will add appeal to any garden or landscape.
This maple prefers sites with fertile, well-drained soil and part sun to part shade. It is versatile in the landscape and may be grown as a feature plant, in a mixed border or in a container.
