Acer palmatum ‘Twombly’s Red Sentinel’

Twombly's Red Sentinel Japanese Maple

 

An upright, columnar tree with deep red leaf color all season long. The new foliage is a brighter red. Branches darken to a deep blood-red after leaf drop providing added winter interest. It prefers well-drained, acidic soil. This makes a good choice for tight places. Discovered as a witch's broom in a Bloodgood Japanese Maple by Ken Twombly.
