Acer palmatum 'Dragon Master' is a Weeping Dwarf Japanese Maple with Small, Broad Leaves with Bright Yellow Color

Acer palmatum ‘Dragon Master’ is a bright yellow version of the popular weeping Japanese maple, ‘Ryusei’. Acer palmatum ‘Dragon Master’ is a weeping dwarf Japanese maple with some of the most pendulous growing branches of any Japanese maple in existence. 'Dragon Master' grows straight down with a dramatic weeping growth habit. With this extreme growth habit 'Dragon Master' won't achieve much height at all without staking. The natural growth of 'Dragon Master' will create a mounding ground cover on its own. 'Dragon Master' is generally staked up to a certain height then allowed to fall to the ground making a beautiful flowing waterfall like affect.

The most unusual thing about 'Dragon Master' aside from its bright yellow foliage is that it has this extreme weeping growth habit but is the leaves are fully palmate instead of the traditionally lacy leaves of most weeping Japanese maples. The leaves of 'Dragon Master' are bright yellow and very attractively star shaped. Most cascading varieties have dissected leaves which makes 'Dragon Master' one of the most unique varieties of weeping dwarf Japanese maples there is. ‘Dragon Master’ has very bright yellow leaves in the spring. These yellow leaves are about as bright yellow as any other Japanese maple that we grow. Yellow Japanese maples like 'Dragon Master' do a great job of contrasting with the popular red Japanese maples. The leaves somewhat to a chartreuse green in the summer before turning orange to bright red in the fall.

Stunning Habit

Wow! This robust specimen has a fountain-like habit. I can't wait until it leafs out in the Spring. Maple Ridge always provides well tended and shapely plants. It is my go-to for finding the Japanese Maple cultivars I am looking for, and often can't find in stock anywhere else.

AP Dragon Master

Plant arrived well packaged and very healthy. Much taller than expected and appears to be of fine quality.
Will keep potted over winter and plant next spring. Should do well based on what I've seen to this point.

Always happy!!

I have been ordering Japanese Maples from Maple Ridge Nursery for years now. I have probably ordered close to 50! I am always happy with the quality of the trees, the safety and care in which they are packaged and the variety which they carry.
