Acer palmatum dissectum ‘Tamukeyama’ is a red-leaf, dissected (cutleaf/laceleaf) cultivar that grows in a mound or dome to 6 - 8 foot tall spreading by weeping and cascading branching to 12 feet wide. It features deeply cut and dissected purple red leaves that turn brighter red in fall. Foliage is noted for retaining good color throughout the summer. Small reddish-purple flowers in spring are somewhat attractive on close inspection, but are not showy from a distance. Flowers are followed by samaras that ripen in late summer to fall.

Tamukeyama does well in moist, organically rich, well-drained soil. This maple does best in full sun to part shade, avoid hot dry sites foliage may scorch in full sun. Plant in a location protected from strong winds.

Japanese maples are generally grown for their attractive foliage and shape. This Japanese maple makes a beautiful specimen tree.
