'Tamukeyama' is a slow growing, weeping deciduous broadleaf shrub that reaches 6 to 8 feet tall and spreads 8 to 10 feet wide. This stunning Japanese maple features deeply dissected, lace-leaf foliage in deep red-purple that creates a cascading waterfall effect in the landscape. The finely cut leaves emerge bright red in spring, maintain their rich color throughout summer, and intensify to brilliant crimson in fall for multi-season interest. The graceful weeping form makes this variety perfect for specimen plantings, Asian-inspired gardens, and containers. Thriving in partial shade and preferring well-drained, slightly acidic soil, Tamukeyama delivers reliable performance with minimal maintenance once established.
