Water Saving Tip:

Change spray sprinklers to low-flow bubbler or drip systems. Shrubs and trees are ideal candidates for this type of irrigation because the water is applied directly to the root zones.

This Japanese maple has an arching, mounded habit, eventually growing 10 feet tall and wide, though slowly. Leaves emerge in spring a deep crimson, and are dissected and lacy. Summer foliage is bronze-red; fall color is red.
