Acer palmatum 'Red Dragon' Dwarf Japanese Maple

'Red Dragon' will stay more red during summer than most varieties.  The coarse leaves begin the spring dark purple and become more red as temperatures increase.  By mid August in Georgia when summer temperatures reach their peak and most other red varieties have turned green 'Red Dragon' still has some bronze or slight bits of red left on it's leaves. Fall color is a dramatic crimson red. The growth habit of  'Red Dragon' is not as pendulous as other weeping cultivars, at times almost prostrate.  While 'Red Dragon' will tolerate full sun in some climates, it would prefer a break from the sun at some point during the day in hotter areas. Although 'Red Dragon is reported to be a moderate grower in some climates, we find it to be very slow in the south.

1 little twig 2inch broke. All I've received, so far, so good. About red dragon, great buds emerging. 2 weeks back I bought a high graft from your area ( red dragon) , main branch broken , 2 twigs remain .ALL your orders arrive in the upright position. Never received that way ever.
I'm happy.

Nice little tree

Arrived healthy and securely packaged. I’m not sure it’s liking the the location I planted it in, the leaves are starting to brown and we have had plenty of rain lately
