Tamukeyama Japanese Maple
Acer palmatum var. dissectum 'Tamukeyama'
The Tamukeyama Japanese Maple is a stunning dwarf tree with a gracefully cascading form and rich, waxy deep-red bark. Its finely lobed foliage emerges in a striking purple-red hue, maintaining its vibrancy through summer before transitioning to brilliant red in the fall. This elegant, deciduous tree is perfect for adding a dramatic accent to Asian-inspired gardens and thrives beautifully in containers. Its compact, weeping habit makes it a standout feature in any landscape. Slow growing.
