Description
Acer palmatum ‘Bloodgood’ is a deciduous cultivar known for its large, robust purple-red leaves that maintain their color throughout the spring and summer. In autumn, the foliage turns a vibrant crimson-red. This cultivar thrives in moist, well-drained soils and can be susceptible to leaf scorch in conditions of excessive sun, wind, and drought. It is cold hardy and also suitable for bonsai cultivation. Acer palmatum ‘Bloodgood’ was developed before 1940 by Bloodgood Nursery in Long Island, New York, and named after the nursery.
