Acer palmatum dissectum ‘Ever Red’

Acer palmatum dissectum ‘Ever Red’

Japanese Maple - Cutleaf - Ever Red

A very special weeping Japanese Maple with the fact when new spring leaves emerge they are initially covered with small pubescence hairs giving it a silvery look. Once the hairs shed, you are left with a rich deep red colour that lasts well into summer, perhaps taking on a bit of a green hue at times. In fall, the leaf colour transitions to a fiery-red. Stake to desired size.
