A focal point in any landscape all year-round, Acer palmatum var. dissectum 'Dissectum Atropurpureum' features an arching habit with nicely contorted branches with lace-like thin leaves that emerges purple-red in the spring, matures to green with a showy purple tint before turning orange-red in the fall. The small reddish flowers give way to showy red samaras.
