Acer palmatum ‘Purple Ghost’ is an awesome reticulated Japanese maple with dark red color. Foliage appears bright red to deep purple in early spring depending on sunlight, in more shady locations the foliage appears more lavender. Regardless of location what makes this leaf special is the prominent black veins. In summer the color turns to burgundy and eventually green with purple undertones. The distinctive veining remains on the leaf throughout the summer regardless of color change. Fall color varies from deep red to reddish orange.

'Purple Ghost' is a strong growing, hardy tree that can be grown in most climates across the United States. It should grow well in zones 5 through 9 and can handle full sun in all but the hottest climates. In warmer areas 'Purple Ghost' should be planted in partial sun for best results.

Wonderful trees

From purchase to arrival, everything was great. Emperor, for me, purple gohst and sunny for my wife. Typical shock from transplant. Super happy. Great communication on the side of a little too much, but better than not enough. Thanks guys.

Purple ghost reticulate japanese maple

It arrived with white spots on the leaves. It doesn’t appear to be powered mildew, overhead watering, Thrips (???). I’m not sure. I sprayed it with neem oil. Fingers crossed. I love this tree.

Beautiful Tree

I’ve been eyeing this particular Japanese maple for some time, and finally ordered it. It arrived very well packaged, and in very good shape, and nicely leafed out. Can’t wait to get it into our garden. Currently having house resided, so we’re waiting till the work is done.

Great experience with Maple Ridge plant nursery

Maple Ridge nursery has totally exceeded my expectations on both their customer service and plant quality, I have purchased several conifers and maples and am very impressed in all areas of the process. I highly recommend purchasing from them and supporting this small family business. I look forward to visiting them in person as I’ve only ordered on line thus far. Great experience!
