Acer p. 'Ryusen' #3

‘Ryusen’ is an exceptional Japanese selection unlike any other, combining the leaf shape of upright maples with a truly weeping form. Strong vertical shoots rise quickly before cascading downward, creating a striking architectural silhouette with natural movement. The green palmate foliage remains clean and refined through summer, then finishes the season with bright yellow and orange-red fall color.

With its rapid growth rate, ‘Ryusen’ can quickly reach up to 20 feet tall while remaining slender, making it an outstanding choice for narrow spaces, vertical accents, and trained applications. It excels when trained as an espalier, allowed to weep over a wall, or guided over an arbor or arch, where its cascading habit can be fully appreciated. 'Ryusen' can be trained to a height that works best for your space. This maple is also deer and rabbit resistant, adding reliability in Midwestern landscapes.
