Maple/Acer – Bloodgood Japanese Maple

Bloodgood Japanese Maples are some of the most beautiful trees for the landscape. These trees provide a certain sense of class while creating a focal point in the garden. They do not like wet feet, so pick a mounded location with well-drained soil. With slow to moderate growth these trees make for perfect foundation or landscape accent plants. To avoid heavy sap flow, if pruning is necessary, prune in mid to late summer.
