Description

‘Adrian’s Compact’ is an attractive little Japanese Maple reaching maybe 10 feet tall and 7 feet wide or so when all grown up, making her a perfect fit for smaller garden spaces, home foundation plantings or in containers that can be situated on patios, decks, balconies and around other outdoor living spaces. The attractive, wide-lobed, palmate leaves emerge a bright red in spring turning to a burgundy to burgundy-purple in summer. The fall show is vibrant orange and red shades.

Landscape & Garden Uses

To showcase its magnificence and beauty, Adrian’s Compact Japanese Maple is best used in the landscape as a focal point specimen to draw attention to a specific area of the home or landscape. That said, you can use two to frame an entry or plant a grouping of three where space allows.

Suggested Spacing: 8 feet or more apart for space between trees

Note: One Japanese Maple can make a landscape…that is, if you don’t overcrowd it with other trees and plants. Therefore, when selecting companions to plant under or around your Japanese Maple, make sure to select low-growing shrubs or groundcovers that won’t interfere at all with your tree.

Growing Preferences

Though delicate looking, Japanese Maples are actually very tough and long-lived trees. They are very easy to grow. Container culture can extend their useful range. They are extremely easy to grow in containers, a practice taken to its most extreme form in the art of bonsai.

In their natural habitat, Japanese Maples are understory trees, growing in dappled forest sunlight at the edges of woodlands. Ideally they prefer to be grown in similar conditions. That said, you can find a complete listing of our sun-tolerant Japanese Maple varieties here, of which Adrian’s Compact is one.

Most any average garden soil will grow Japanese Maples. They prefer a moist but well-drained soil rich in organic matter. As with so many other ornamental plants and trees, constantly soggy or wet soil can be problematic. So make sure to plant your Japanese Maple in a well-drained site.
