Aperçu
The Purple-Leaf Japanese Maple is one of the most popular small trees you can own in your garden. With its bold and beautiful foliage, it can add to any garden’s style. During spring and early summer its leaves are a vibrant shade of red and turn to a purple hue when cooler temperatures arrive. This tree also has plenty of other features that make it an amazing choice. Its upright form is especially nice if you’re looking for a small tree that can cover up an ugly fence. Plus, it’s disease resistant and requires minimal maintenance, which is a bonus. It’s no wonder why this Maple species is so popular!
