Acer circinatum 'Burgundy Jewel' Vine Maple
from $29.00
Acer circinatum ‘Burgundy Jewel’ (Vine Maple)
‘Burgundy Jewel’ is a truly unique vine maple, treasured for its rich wine-colored foliage and strong seasonal interest. In early spring, the tree leafs out a deep maroon-red, displayed on large, rounded circinatum-type leaves. This saturated color holds impressively well into summer, creating a dramatic contrast to the typical green vine maple.
To maintain its striking color, ‘Burgundy Jewel’ performs best with at least morning sun to full sun, though it prefers afternoon shade in hotter climates. Too much shade will cause the foliage to turn greener, while full afternoon sun may cause leaf burn.
This upright vine maple grows into a dense, rounded form, reaching 6–7 feet in about 10 years. In autumn, the foliage transitions beautifully through intense oranges and bright crimsons to deep maroon reds, ensuring a brilliant fall display.
‘Burgundy Jewel’ stands apart as one of the few true red vine maples, offering color and character rarely seen in the species.

Acer palmatum 'Anticipation' Red Lace Leaf Japanese Maple
from $39.00
Acer palmatum ‘Anticipation’ is a Maple Ridge Nursery introduction that we have had some fun with over the past few years. It is a beautiful red lace leaf that seems to have an irregular growth habit. It’s most unique feature however, is how late this tree emerges in the spring. This is where the name ‘Anticipation comes from. ‘Anticipation’ routinely waits until the middle to end of April here in Georgia to leaf out, easily the last cultivar at our nursery to do so. There were many years that we thought the tree was dead because it had been so long. This may not seem like a benefit at first, but this trait protects ‘Anticipation’ from any late freezes or frosts. Regardless of the tree’s quirks, ‘Anticipation’ is a beautiful Japanese maple that has excellent red color in the spring that holds quite well throughout the summer even in the heat. Fall color is then a nice bright red. The growth habit is still something we are evaluating, but thus far to have a rather unique shape while becoming the same size as most other Japanese maples in this category. 10 Year Size: Height: 4-6 feet Width: 4-6 feet
