Acer palmatum 'Skeeter's Broom' ~ Skeeter's Broom Japanese Maple Size:3 GALLON citrus cankerSkeeter's Broom Japanese Maple is a colorful compact deciduous tree with an upright habit. Its burgundy red palmate foliage emerges bright red and turns blazing fire engine red in fall. Small, non showy but attractive umbels of red flowers bloom in spring followed by samaras. Grows best in rich, moist, slightly acidic well drained soils. Prefers full sun in cooler climates, but needs afternoon shade in southern areas. Type: Tree Origins: East Asia
