Acer Palmatum Dissectum 'Crimson Queen' (Crimson Queen Weeping Japanese Maple Standards) is a breathtaking deciduous tree with a graceful weeping habit and finely dissected foliage. Its deep crimson-red leaves retain their striking colour throughout spring and summer before intensifying into brilliant scarlet tones in autumn. Grafted onto a standard trunk, this elegant maple forms a cascading, dome-like shape, making it a standout feature in gardens, courtyards, and ornamental pots.
Thriving in full sun to partial shade, Acer Palmatum Dissectum 'Crimson Queen' prefers moist, well-drained soil and a sheltered location to protect its delicate foliage from strong winds and harsh afternoon sun. Its compact size and year-round visual appeal make it an excellent choice for small gardens and decorative landscapes.
