Winter Queen® Weeping Maple is a true royal among ornamental trees, draping the landscape in a flowing canopy of finely cut burgundy foliage from spring through summer. Its graceful weeping branches create a dramatic architectural presence that immediately draws the eye and adds movement to the garden. Unlike larger shade trees that can overwhelm a space, Winter Queen® Weeping Maple brings elegance and character while maintaining a manageable footprint. The richly colored foliage provides a beautiful contrast against green lawns, flowering shrubs, and evergreen backdrops. Whether serving as a focal point near an entryway or anchoring a carefully designed garden bed, this remarkable maple commands attention throughout the growing season.
Part of the celebrated Jack Frost® Collection from Iseli Nursery, Winter Queen® Weeping Maple was developed to combine the delicate beauty of Japanese maples with the exceptional cold hardiness of Korean maple genetics. Gardeners in colder climates can enjoy the classic weeping form and lace-like foliage that are often difficult to grow successfully in regions with harsh winters. Its sturdy branching structure is uniquely equipped to handle snow, ice, and winter winds while maintaining its attractive shape year after year. In warmer climates, however, thoughtful placement is essential. Afternoon shade and protection from intense summer heat help preserve the rich burgundy foliage and reduce the potential for leaf scorch during periods of extreme temperatures.
As autumn arrives, Winter Queen® Weeping Maple delivers one final royal performance as the burgundy canopy transforms into brilliant shades of scarlet red. The vibrant fall display creates a stunning seasonal centerpiece that often becomes one of the most photographed features in the landscape. With an expected mature size of approximately 7 feet tall and 10 feet wide, this cascading maple is perfectly suited for foundation plantings, courtyard gardens, collector landscapes, and high-visibility focal points. Gardeners searching for a cold hardy weeping maple, burgundy laceleaf maple, ornamental specimen tree, or unique Japanese maple alternative will find Winter Queen® Weeping Maple worthy of its regal name. Its beauty, durability, and four-season appeal ensure it reigns over the landscape for years to come.
