Acer palmatum 'Adrian's Compact'


Discover the striking beauty of Adrian's Compact Japanese Maple, a standout choice for enhancing any garden or landscape. This upright dwarf variety begins the growing season with vibrant red leaves that deepen into rich purple and maroon hues through summer, culminating in stunning orange and red shades come fall. Its compact form adds elegant structure without overwhelming space, maturing gracefully to about 10 feet over a decade.

Carefully cultivated in larger 2 or 3 gallon pots, these Japanese Maples offer more mature specimens that establish faster in your garden compared to typical smaller plants. Ideal for gardeners seeking a slow-growing, easy-to-maintain tree with vibrant seasonal color shifts, this variety thrives in full sun to partial shade climates within USDA zones 5 through 8.

Adrian's Compact is drought tolerant and well-suited as a collector's gem or centerpiece in mixed borders and container plantings. Its unique color progression through the seasons injects dynamic visual interest and seasonal charm.

Japanses Maples are easy to grow in a sunny spot with space to spread out.  A little dappled shade in the afternoon is a good idea in warmer states as the leaves can be stressed in the hottest months of the year.
