Skeeter’s Broom Japanese Maple is your answer when space is limited but color is non-negotiable. This upright, deciduous shrub offers dynamic foliage throughout the growing season—starting bright red in spring, maturing to deep maroon in summer, and finishing in a bold fire-engine red each fall. Reaching up to 15 feet tall and staying just 5–6 feet wide, it’s the perfect vertical accent for tight borders, containers, and small landscapes. Naturally compact and low-maintenance, it delivers structure and vibrant foliage with very little effort.
Perfect for tight spaces: Designed by nature for modern gardens, Skeeter’s Broom grows tall and slim—ideal when ground space is at a premium. Its narrow silhouette means you can plant it near walkways, patios, or in foundation beds without crowding neighboring plants. This is a Japanese maple that fits beautifully into city gardens, suburban front yards, and container plantings, adding height and color without taking over.
A full season of foliage interest: This maple is all about dependable, evolving color. In early spring, new growth emerges in a vivid bright red. As the season progresses, leaves deepen to a rich maroon, providing a dramatic backdrop for surrounding greenery. When autumn arrives, the tree ends its season with a bold display of fire-engine red foliage—making it a standout in any fall landscape.
Minimal effort. Maximum presence: Thanks to its naturally compact, upright habit, Skeeter’s Broom requires little pruning to maintain its shape. It thrives in well-drained soil with average moisture and tolerates partial shade to full sun in most climates. Once established, this is a fuss-free tree that adds year-round structure and vibrant seasonal color without demanding attention.
