Acer palmatum dissectum

'Red Feathers'

'Red Feathers' Finely Cut Dwarf Weeping Japanese Maple

Zones 5-9

Acer palmatum dissectum ‘Red Feathers' is an extremely dwarf weeping Japanese maple with an extraordinary finely cut thread-like leaf. ‘Red Feathers’ is a brighter red in the spring, turning to a darker maroon by late spring. During the summer, the leaves turn to a green red, later turning to a bright crimson red for fall. ‘Red Feathers’ may reach 3-4 ft in height and width with nice cascading habit in 10 years. For best growth rate give ‘Red Feathers’ protection from the hot afternoon sun. ‘Red Feathers’ was found by Rila at Vermuelen and Sons Nursery as a chance seedling off the original ‘Burgundy Lace’. Nancy Vermuelen had given this tree the original working name of ‘Rila’s Red’, which is a name that ‘Red Feathers’ is sometimes seen as in the nursery trade. Nancy later gave this laceleaf the official name of ‘Red Feathers. This is an excellent dwarf for containers or small spaces.
