‘Bloodgood’ is an award‑winning Japanese maple famed for its rich burgundy leaves that persist even in full sun, turning brilliant crimson in autumn. Upright, multi‑stemmed habit to 5–6 m makes it a superb specimen or patio tree. Spring brings tiny purple flowers followed by decorative red samaras. Heat tolerant and low‑maintenance, it thrives in zones 5–8 with moderate moisture.
