Details- Crimson Queen Japanese Maple trees are low maintenance and do well in most growing locations. This ornamental tree provides shade to your landscape. The trunk of this tree stays relatively small and only gets to about the size of a softball when mature.

Pruning- Pruning should be done as needed to remove dead or damaged branches. Selective pruning can help establish the mature shape of the tree.
