Bloodgood Japanese Maple Trees for Sale Online

The Bloodgood Japanese maple tree is a tried-and-true specimen plant. This is today's most famous Japanese Maple, commonly referred to as Red Japanese Maple or Bloodgood Maple. It is one of the easiest to grow and hardiest of the Japanese maples. You’ll love the burgundy foliage.

This is an excellent Japanese Maple Tree for beginners due to its ease of growth. This dwarf Japanese Maple is perfect for planting around a patio or deck because the foliage allows some sunlight through, creating filtered sunlight. Because of this, you can plant smaller shrubs and perennials underneath without worrying about the shade becoming too dense for the plants to survive.

The Japanese Bloodgood Maple was introduced into the United States before World War II and is named in honor of Bloodgood Nursery on Long Island, where it was developed.

It maintains its burgundy red foliage throughout the growing season and is a relatively fast-growing Japanese Maple, growing 2 to 3 feet per year. The leaves develop a beautiful reddish-orange color in the fall, unmatched by other trees.
