Skeeterā€™s Broom Japanese Maple has a unique form, with multiple upright stems and a strong vertical line. It grows 6 feet tall or more, but stays only 3 feet wide, making it ideal for narrow spaces, or as a vertical accent plant. It has rich red spring foliage, purple-red summer leaves, brilliant bright red fall colors, and red winter twigs, making it truly a four-season colorful tree. It is ideal for beds or in semi-shaded woodland, or in planters and containers.

  • Unique upright form for narrow spaces or planters
  • Brilliant red spring foliage turns purple-red in summer
  • Powerful bright red fall colors
  • Vigorous and easily grown
  • Very cold hardy and durable

Derived from the popular, hardy and reliable Bloodgood, Skeeterā€™s Broom Japanese Maple is more cold hardy than most other varieties. It grows in full sun or partial shade too. It is vigorous and grows well in any moist, well-drained soil. Organic material blended into the soil, and used regularly as mulch, will help it really thrive and grow rapidly. It normally has no pests or diseases, and with a good location and some watering it is easy to grow.
