‘Trompenburg’ Japanese Maple – Acer Palmatum ‘Trompenburg’

‘Trompenburg’ Japanese Maple – Acer Palmatum ‘Trompenburg’

Zone 5
Grows 18 to 20 ft. tall and wide.
Grow in full sun to part shade.




Very fast growing and more heat tolerant than other Japanese Maples, Trompenburg's red leafstalks, the unique leaf shape and the elegant form make it a must-have specimen. The leaves will darken through the summer and then turn crimson in the fall. This tree benefits from pruning and shaping when it is young, to maximize it’s lovely form.
