About this plant

Acer palmatum subsp. matsumurae 'Tamukeyama', commonly known as the Japanese Laceleaf Maple, is a striking deciduous tree celebrated for its deeply dissected, lace-like foliage that emerges a vibrant crimson red in spring, gradually maturing to a rich burgundy or purple hue. This cultivar, originating from Japan and widely cultivated for its ornamental appeal, features a cascading, graceful growth habit with finely textured leaves that create a delicate, fern-like appearance, making it a favorite for shade gardens, bonsai, and as a specimen plant. The tree typically reaches a modest height of 8 to 10 feet, making it suitable for smaller landscapes and container culture. 'Tamukeyama' is noted for its excellent fall color, with leaves turning brilliant scarlet before dropping. Its unique foliage and compact form have earned it recognition among garden enthusiasts and professionals alike fo
