Acer palmatum 'Bloodgood'

Genus: Acer
Species: palmatum
Variety: 'Bloodgood'
Plant Type: Deciduous Tree

One of the most popular red leaved Maples: the typical broad leaves open purple-red, and it retains this colour until late summer better than most other red leaved varieties. In autumn it reliably turns to bright crimson. It's a vigorous growing variety with strong branches forming a broad topped tree. It's one of our most popular Acers, and is one of the best choices for a sunnier position. Shelter from wind.
