Buy Samurai Sword™ Upright Japanese Maple online. Samurai Sword™ Upright Japanese Maple will make you rethink Japanese maples. Of course, it has the lovely foliage and vivid fall color you expect, but its size is more on the scale of a shade tree or small street tree than the typical compact specimen. And best of all, it's fast-growing, so you will enjoy everything it has to offer in a reasonable time frame. Deep red foliage is distinctly palmate and turns dazzling red in autumn.
Family: Sapindaceae / Aceraceae · Common Name: Maple

SAMURAI SWORD™ UPRIGHT JAPANESE MAPLE Homeowner Growing & Maintenance Tips
Japanese Maples are moderately easy to grow and adapt to most conditions; however, they do prefer to be planted in an area that is well protected from wind, heat exposure, and drought like conditions. Feed once a year with a slow release fertilizer.
