Acer Palmatum 'Red Pygmy' (Japanese Maple Red Pygmy)

The Japanese Maple Red Pygmy is a unique and elegant deciduous tree renowned for its finely dissected, narrow, strap-like leaves. In spring, the foliage emerges with a striking red hue, gradually transitioning to green with hints of bronze in summer, and returning to vibrant red tones in autumn. Its compact size and delicate form make it a perfect choice for small gardens, courtyards, or container planting.

This cultivar thrives in moist, well-drained soils and prefers a sheltered position with partial shade to avoid leaf scorch in hot climates. Low-maintenance and slow-growing, the Red Pygmy adds year-round interest and is highly prized for its graceful appearance, making it an ideal focal point in any landscape.
