This elegant Japanese maple has a cascading habit and thrives in USDA hardiness zones 5 through 8. It prefers temperatures ranging from 60 to 75°F and should be planted in well-drained, acidic soil to ensure optimal growth. With stunning red-purple foliage in the fall, it creates a picturesque landscape feature. The tree's mature height ranges from 6 to 8 feet, and its notable weeping shape form adds an aesthetic appeal to any garden. While it has moderate deer resistance, care should be taken to protect it from extreme conditions to avoid damage. This ornamental beauty does not bear fruit, making it ideal for those seeking low-litter plants. Its vibrant red spring flowers offer an additional splash of color to any outdoor space.
