Traditionally, Japanese maples reach their prime in the fall when they change coloring. But there's a new leaf in town - Red Dragon Japanese Maple! Leaf color softens to purple-red and it holds throughout the season (even in its shaded environment). Makes for an ideal substitute for traditional Japanese maples that grow too big or live too long.
