BROCADE WEEPING JAPANESE MAPLE

Hardiness Zone: 5-8   ·   Mature Height: 1-2 Feet   ·   Mature Spread: 5-6 Feet

Brocade Weeping Japanese Maple is a laceleaf Japanese maple that feels like it was pulled straight from a painter's palette. In early spring, its finely dissected leaves burst onto the scene in vivid orange-red—the kind of color that makes passersby stop and stare. As the weeks progress, the foliage deepens into rich red tones before settling into an elegant blend of bronze and red-green, always punctuated by fresh flushes of orange that appear throughout the summer like brushstrokes of fire.

But it's the shape of Brocade Weeping Japanese Maple that makes it truly unforgettable. This is one of the most dramatically cascading weeping trees available, weeping so strongly that it naturally forms a low, flowing mound of foliage unless trained upward. Left alone, it creeps across the garden like an ornamental tide—reaching an estimated 1–2 feet tall but spreading an impressive 6 feet wide over a decade. Staked upright, it becomes a living fountain, spilling laceleaf foliage downward in ribbons of color and texture.

Come fall, Brocade Weeping Japanese Maple performs its most spectacular act: an explosion of bright crimson and glowing orange that lights up the landscape. Unlike many dark-red laceleaf cultivars, Brocade Weeping Japanese Maple holds a brighter, more cheerful red through much of the year, giving it a uniquely lively presence. Elegant, eye-catching, and always intriguing, this cultivar delivers both structure and color in a form that feels endlessly artistic.
