Description:  

Low-branching, dwarf tree with delicate weeping effect. Holds beautiful crimson color throughout summer before dropping in fall. Well-suited for use as a small lawn tree or on patios and entryways. Filtered sun. Moderate grower to 10 feet tall and wide. Grafted.

Plant beside a stream or pond where its cascading branches will look superb. Use the extremely fine texture and reddish hue of its leaves to contrast areas of coarser green plants. Beautiful above a large rock or wall where the limbs can spill over. A great specimen plant for the woodsy landscape. Keep away from full sun, which can burn leaves.
