Common Name: Red Select Laceleaf Japanese Maple
‘Red Select' is a dissected cultivar that typically grows in an upright,
broad-rounded but cascading form to 4-6' tall over the first ten years,
eventually maturing to 10' tall and to 12' or more wide. It is noted
for its lace-like foliage that emerges light red in spring, matures to
deep red-purple in summer and finally turns crimson red in fall.
Palmate, 7-lobed, red-purple leaves (to 6" long) are deeply cut and
dissected. Small reddish flowers in spring are somewhat attractive on
close inspection, but are not showy from a distance. (Missouri Botanical Garden)
