Japanese Maple Tree Nigrum Two Gallon Plant

by Clifton's Nursery

Product Features

• The Black Japanese Maple, also known as Acer palmatum 'nigrum' is a boldly hued, small garden or patio tree displaying black red new foliage maturing to deep purple red.
• This Japanese Maple variety will be a stunning accent in your garden, providing necessary color contrast to an all green backdrop. Invaluable for Asian or Japanese styled gardens, and a worthy choice for urban gardens where the plants can be protected by buildings from wind and sun.
• Maples even do well in large containers for porch, patio or terrace. These shade loving tree's preference for acidic soils also make them perfectly adapted to grow within the influence of needled evergreens. Smaller stature is excellent for foundation beds around homes and in naturalistic drifts of landscape.
• This Acer can be used in just about any garden locale. Do plant in at least partial or afternoon shade for best results. The Japanese maple 'nigrum' is slow growing to about 10 feet tall or clipped to shape.
• This premium specimen is shipped potted in soil to ensure the best possible start when planted in yard or garden. Hardy to USDA zone 5 and all higher zones.
