Acer palmatum 'Atropurpureum'

Acer palmatum 'Atropurpureum' is a striking Japanese Maple featuring deeply lobed, crimson-purple leaves that mature to vibrant scarlet-red in autumn. This deciduous tree provides year-round colour and architectural interest, with rich foliage from spring through summer. For best colour and leaf health, plant in a sheltered site away from harsh winds, which can scorch the leaves. It prefers well-drained soil and generally enjoys partial shade, especially in hotter climates.

  • Stunning year-round colour: crimson-purple spring/summer foliage that turns vibrant scarlet in autumn.
  • Graceful growth: a moderate, elegant tree that can reach several metres in height and width with age.
  • Foliage: deeply lobed, classic maple silhouette.
  • Growing conditions: well-drained soil; tolerant of partial shade to full sun depending on climate; protect from strong winds.
  • Care: low-maintenance with minimal pruning; mulch and regular watering during establishment.
  • Hardiness: hardy in USDA zones 5–8; provide wind protection in exposed sites and very cold winters.
