Acer palmatum var. dissectum 'Red Dragon' is a remarkable feature for any landscape, fitting elegantly into small gardens while also bringing a noteworthy touch to larger landscapes. Known as the Red Dragon Japanese Maple, this deciduous tree showcases deep, purple-red foliage transitioning progressively from a fiery red in spring, to a dark burgundy in summer and culminating in a vivid scarlet come fall. Its compact, weeping form attains a height and spread of up to 8 feet, perfectly complemented by its ornately dissected, lacy leaves. With modest water usage and a tolerance for both full sun and partial shade, this striking tree is more than just its aesthetic charm, offering adaptability and ease-of-care alongside its seasonal color spectacle. Vibrant, versatile, and visually stunning, the Red Dragon establishes itself as a year-round centerpiece, elevating the beauty and appeal of any garden setting.
