Description
Perhaps the most popular of all red lace leaf varieties, the Crimson Queen Japanese Maple is prized for its display of crimson red foliage and attractive, dense, weeping form. The thinly dissected, lacy leaves emerge a deep red in spring, turning to a bronze purple in summer, then to a sunning, hot pinkish-red in fall. All grown up this beauty might reach 6 to 10 feet tall (depending on graft height and pruning) and wide.
Landscape & Garden Uses
To showcase its magnificence and beauty, a Japanese Maple is best used in landscape design as a focal point specimen to draw attention to a specific area of the home or landscape. That said, you can plant them in groupings of three or plant one on both sides of an entryway. An ideal selection for landscape beds or in containers.
Suggested Spacing:  At least 14 feet apart for space between trees
Container culture can extend the useful range of Japanese Maples. They are extremely easy to grow in containers, a practice taken to its most extreme form in the art of bonsai. Click on the link below under Helpful Articles for Japanese Maple container planting instructions. 
Note:  One Japanese Maple can make a landscape…that is, if you don’t overcrowd it with other trees and plants. Therefore, when choosing companions to plant under or around your Japanese Maple, make sure to select low-growing shrubs or groundcover plants that won’t interfere at all with your tree.
Note: For our customers who live and garden north of USDA Plant Hardiness Zone 5a, where this Japanese Maple variety is not reliably winter hardy, you’ll be happy to know it can be grown in containers that can be brought indoors during winter and placed back outside when temperatures warm up in spring.
Growing Preferences
Though delicate looking, Japanese Maples are actually very tough and long-lived trees that 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, there are many sun-tolerant Japanese Maple varieties, of which Crimson Queen 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.

Dear Team Wilson Brothers:
I just want to tell you that my complete order was quickly received today and the trees are planted on my terrace, each a work of art. I do not know how you so perfectly achieve consistent quality service. Not a branch broken, not a spot of dirt in the boxs x 3. I will remain loyal and for all your efforts, I am deeply appreciative. Thank you and continued HAPPY HOLIDAYS.——————————————————Thanks so much for your review. Let us know if there’s ever anything we can help you with. 🙂 – Beth | WBG
I purchased this tree from Wilson Bros Gardens because it wasn’t available to me locally and because they have so many positive reviews. I was able to pick out the tree and Angie helped me and went above and beyond to accommodate me while choosing between 5 or 6 trees. I finally made my choice after receiving many great pictures and It arrived within a week, It was carefully and securely packaged and was beautiful and the exact tree that I picked. I have not noticed any signs of shock and my new baby is happy and healthy. I am so thrilled with my purchase and I will definitely purchase more items from Wilson Bros Gardens in the future. Thank you so much for being a great company and growing such beautiful plants and trees.————————————-We are so glad you are pleased and we hope you enjoy it for years to come! Thanks for the kind words and awesome review! 🙂 Beth Steele | WBG

I would like to recant a “not so nice” review. I initially had a great experience with this company. After awhile it took a nose dive. BUT…..that all changed. After speaking with several of the employees and owner I was more than satisfied with the response. This company is not just a business to make a living. It is sooo much more. They actually really do care about their product. More importantly they care about their customers. And even more importantly the value their employees. I do not want to mention names but you know who you are. I am grateful for your time and your effort into my issue. I would have no problem recommending Wilson Bros. To family, friends and anyone I see on the street. You have restored my faith in good business skills. My Dad owned his own business for many years before he passed. It wasn’t a financial gold mine but it kept his family fed, warm and healthy. He practiced the same way you do. Knowing you maybe right but putting the customer ahead of that dollar bill. That’s what he always did. So success isn’t always measured by your wallet. Success is from hearing from customers like me. With that being said..Thank you . May you and your family be safe ,happy and healthy.——————————–We are so glad you are pleased and we hope you enjoy it for years to come! Thanks so much for the awesome review! 🙂 Beth Steele | WBG
Tree came in good condition and was just as it was described . Throughout the process the team kept me updated and any questions I had were answered in a timely manner via email . I would recommend this nursery for any tree needs. Thank you .——————————-Thanks for the great review! We are so glad you are pleased! Beth | WBG
Tree came within a week of ordering. It is exactly as described and looks great. Highly recommend.——————————————Thanks for the great review! We are so glad you are pleased! Beth | WBG
The tree looks wonderful!! We are so excited to plant it once it stops raining…which.might be a minute. It will look absolutely lovely in our yard!! Thank you much!
The title kind of says it all! Thank you Wilson Bros! See ya next spring….’Another gorgeous plant from Wilson Bros!—————————————————Hi Mary, Thanks so much for taking the time to provide your review of the Crimson Queen Dwarf Japanese Maple. We are so glad you are pleased and we hope you enjoy it for years to come! Thanks again!! 🙂
