About this plant
Acer palmatum dissectum 'Red Dragon' is a stunning Japanese maple known for its deeply dissected, lace-like leaves that emerge bright crimson in spring, transitioning to rich burgundy throughout the growing season. In autumn, the foliage delivers a spectacular display of fiery red shades, making it a standout feature in any garden. This compact and weeping variety is ideal for small spaces, container planting, or as a focal point in landscape designs. Its elegant cascading form adds charm and texture to garden beds or shaded corners.
