Acer palmatum ‘Atropurpureum’ (Japanese Maple)

Acer palmatum ‘Atropurpureum’ is a slow-growing acer, bearing deeply lobed, red-purple leaves that turn a brilliant scarlet in autumn before falling. It makes a beautiful small tree, and the deepest purple colouring results from a spot with more light, while the foliage will be greener in low light areas.

For best results, grow Acer palmatum ‘Atropurpureum’ in moist but well-drained soil in partial shade. Protect it from the harshest winds, which may cause leaf scorch.
