Has slender, pointed lobes, opening pink-red in spring, developing to a dark-red to purple in summer, and turning purple-red in autumn. Similar to Acer palmatum ‘Bloodgood’ but is smaller-growing and has less deeply-lobed leaves. Looks best in locations where the autumn foliage can be back-lit by the sun for a beautiful effect. Acer palmatum ‘Fireglow’ (Japanese Maple) is a deciduous tree that grows at a moderate rate to reach 4m in 10 years.
