Why plant Red Select Japanese Maple?

Red Select Japanese Maple is a favorite among gardeners and designers for its graceful, weeping habit and stunning red foliage. Each leaf is finely cut and deeply lobed, giving the tree a delicate lace-like appearance. Unlike some red-leaved maples that fade to green in summer, Red Select maintains its rich burgundy color through the heat. In autumn, it lights up with brilliant scarlet hues. This cultivar is an ideal focal point, adding color, form, and tranquility to any landscape. Red Select is especially suited for peaceful garden retreats and artistic plantings.

How to use Red Select Japanese Maple in the landscape?

Use Red Select as a standalone focal point in the front yard or as a featured specimen in a shady garden. It excels in rock gardens, near water features, or tucked beside a patio where its branching and foliage can be admired up close. Its compact size and sculptural shape also make it a strong choice for containers or raised beds.

Frequently Asked Questions

No. Red Select is known for holding its deep red color better than many other laceleaf Japanese Maples, even through the summer months.

Provide consistent water during the first growing season and protect it from harsh afternoon sun. Mulch around the base to retain moisture and regulate soil temperature.

Light pruning can be done in late winter to remove dead or crossing branches. Avoid heavy pruning, as this tree is naturally artistic and best left mostly untouched.
