Acer ‘Heartbeat’ Japanese Maple

Acer palmatum dissectum 

Heartbeat is a beautiful Weeping Maple with a mounded, mushroom shaped habit. An Australian breed with bright red Spring growth that slowly turns to shades of bronze in Summer and glowing red in Autumn. The leaf colour creates an amazing contrast against yellows and greens in the garden. Grows to approximately 1.5m in height and 2.5m wide.

Heartbeat forms a very neat mounding shrub and makes a lovely feature in the garden or in a patio pot. These have a compact tidy habit that negates the need for heavy pruning.
