Acer palmatum 'Crimson Queen' Cutleaf Japanese Maple
'Crimson Queen' is a popular cultivar noted for its excellent leaf color retention throughout the growing season. Small reddish flowers in spring give way to samaras which ripen in late summer to early fall. As with many maples, the flowers are rather attractive close up, but are not particularly showy from a distance.
