‘Red Dragon’ is a very hardy weeping Red Japanese maple. This Japanese maple cultivar is known in the trade to hold its red color extremely well even late in hot summers. The Red Dragon Japanese Maple is a deep maroon to burgundy throughout the summer and turns to a bright red in the fall. It has a beautiful dissected leaf with predominant bottom lobes that give it is dragon horns look. ‘Red Dragon’ stays relatively small at around 4-5 feet in 10 years. This Japanese maple tree performs well in sun or shade. The Red Dragon Japanese Maple is an excellent tree for a potted container on a porch or patio and brings amazing color to any yard it is planted in.

My acer palmatum 'Red Dragon' Dwarf Japanese Maple arrived quickly, well packaged, and as described. I planted it the day I got it, and it started sprouting leaves soon after. The attached photo was taken a couple of weeks after I planted it.
We visited the open house for the first time and found the perfect replacement for our 25 year old maple lost in hurricane Helene. Staff was helpful and prices were good.
Came in in great shape and ready to watch it grow.
This is my fourth tree from mrmaple.com
Every single tree I’ve gotten from these guys has come well packaged and in great condition. They reliably send plants with beautiful structure, and you just can’t beat their prices locally . I’ve also enjoying their videos online ( they are quite prolific).
So excited to buy my second Red Dragon! I have good size planters and have planted two with Red Dragons to bookend our bench. Love the quality and size of the trees for the price. Wonderful business and family!
