Notably holding its bright cherry-red foliage color longer than other Lace leaf varieties, Red Dragon is a compact Japanese Maple, reaching a mature height of 7 ft. and a width of 5. Intricate feathery leaves cover weeping branches that ever increasingly cascade towards the ground as this tree grows. From vivid scarlet red in spring, the delicate foliage turns to a deeper burgundy in summer before finally changing to a brilliant crimson-red in autumn. Featuring a dense branching structure, this Japanese Maple grows upright initially, eventually forming an elegant cascading shape. Perfect for small gardens or containers. Red Dragon lives best in full Sun or part shade, USDA Cold Hardiness Zones 5-8.
