Scientific Name:
Acer palmatum 'Bloodgood'

Family:
Bloodgood Japanese Maple

Family:
Aceraceae

Description:
The cultivar 'Bloodgood', shown here with its vibrant Spring foliage, is perhaps the best of the Japanese Maples for retaining the intensity of red foliage coloration throughout the Summer, unlike most cultivars that transition to a bronzy green by early or mid-Summer.
