Acer Palmatum ‘Bloodgood’, commonly known as the Bloodgood Japanese Maple, is a premium ornamental tree prized for its graceful upright form and rich seasonal colour.

Small reddish-purple spring flowers may be followed by decorative red-winged seed pods.
This elegant deciduous tree makes an outstanding focal point in garden beds, courtyards and formal or Japanese-inspired landscapes. Its manageable size, refined branching and dependable foliage colour provide year-round structure and visual interest.
