Brilliant Scarlet Red Unique to this Bloodgood

Why Bloodgood Japanese Maples?

A fresh, richly-hued focal point of any landscape, the Bloodgood Japanese Maple Tree is known for standing out with amazing color. Landscape designers love to use its vibrant silhouette because it pops well against grass, flower beds and more.

But what sets our Japanese Maple apart from the rest? For starters, its foliage stays scarlet for more than just a few weeks like many other varieties. Though the color occasionally fades in high heat, you still get months of amazing visual interest. And it's a small tree that you can plant near your home, patio or tight places.

Trim the Bloodgood Japanese Maple to your desired height or let it grow to its full 15 feet. The roots are well-behaved; Japanese Maples are perfect for accenting corners or crevices near foundation walls. They also work great for small yards, entryways, accents or as property dividers.

Love my Bloodgood Japanese Maple!

Love love love my Bloodgood Japanese Maple! Arrived looking very nice in Mar of 2025. It's had a year to grow, had to string the branches to the posts a bit to ensure the direction of the branches that I wanted, but I love this tree! It was looking a little sparse in the winter time after the hard cold winter, but little buds started appearing soon after & I knew it would be fine. Yes, I did cover it to make sure it didn't freeze. Can't wait for this thing to get full size!

Fast Growing Trees Plant ExpertHi Anthony, happy to hear your maple made it through winter and is already showing fresh growth. That seasonal leaf drop and lighter look is totally normal. With a little patience, it should continue to fill in and become even more striking year after year.

5 stars but lopsided

We love the tree but there’s branches on one side only. Hoping it will fill in.

So far so good

This is my second tree from FGT, the first was a dwarf magnolia which has thrived. The bloodgood arrived in good shape and actually taller than what I expected. It is in the ground now. It has been windy so I removed the stake and used three taller stakes around the tree. It seems to love where it is, I hope it survives the hot months of summer.

Recently received my tree. It

Recently received my tree. It was boxed just as you explained it would be. It is in great shape. I kept it inside 2 days due to a freeze. It is planted & looking very much at home So pleased with the tree’s condition upon arrival. The packing procedure & delivery were excellent A great experience with your company!!!!

Fast Growing Trees Plant ExpertHi Carol, we’re pleased to hear your tree arrived in such good condition and that your experience was a positive one. The Bloodgood Japanese Maple sounds like it is right at home now. Taking those extra steps during the freeze really helps, and it’s great to hear it’s doing so well after planting.
