Acer palmatum 'Fireglow'

'Fireglow' is the perfect name for this small upright Japanese maple. The leaves emerge more dark red than purple in spring and are thinner than other cultivars making them somewhat translucent. If sited where it can be viewed with the rising or setting sun behind it the leaves will glow a bright red. If you are watching when the sun gets to the proper angle it looks like someone turned on an electrical switch and the tree was lit. Rather slow growing for an upright. Fall color is bright red.

Height: 10-12 Feet Width: 6-8 Feet
