HEARTBEAT DWARF WEEPING JAPANESE MAPLE

Hardiness Zone: 5-8   ·   Mature Height: 2-4 Feet   ·   Mature Spread: 6-8 Feet

Heartbeat Dwarf Weeping Japanese Maple is a dazzling weeping Japanese maple that lives up to its name with unforgettable red tones that pulse through the seasons. In spring, finely cut laceleaf foliage emerges in a vivid red—brighter and fresher than many other dissectum varieties. As summer arrives, the leaves soften to bronze-red and then to green, but new flushes of red continue to appear at the branch tips, creating a dynamic contrast of color throughout the warm months.

Low and wide-spreading, Heartbeat Dwarf Weeping Japanese Maple forms a cascading mound that grows broader than it does tall, typically reaching 2-4 feet in height and 6-8 feet across in its first decade. This growth habit makes it an excellent choice for garden borders, foundation plantings, and Japanese-style landscapes where flowing form and rich color are celebrated. Its deeply dissected leaves are held apart from one another, giving the tree a textural, almost airy appearance while maintaining a strong sculptural presence.

Autumn is when this specimen truly earns its name...its foliage bursts into an intense crimson red that seems to glow against fall's softer tones, stopping visitors in their tracks. Introduced from Australia and cold hardy rated in USDA zones 5-8, Heartbeat Dwarf Weeping Japanese Maple thrives in a range of climates, tolerating humidity and cold winters while delivering color and drama year after year. With its vigorous growth, striking texture, and season-spanning display, this Japanese maple is a living work of art for collectors and home gardeners alike.
