Acer palmatum 'Fire Glow' Japanese Maple: 'Fire Glow' is a dazzling maple prized for its brilliant red foliage that glows with fiery intensity when backlit by the sun. In spring, its leaves emerge a bright crimson-red, deepening to a rich ruby shade through summer, while retaining their vibrancy far longer than many other red cultivars. Autumn brings a spectacular display of scarlet and crimson, truly living up to its name. With its upright, compact habit, 'Fire Glow' is a striking choice for garden borders, feature plantings, or container displays.
Care Information:
Climate Adaptability: Performs well in temperate climates. Shelter from hot, dry winds for best results.
Sun Exposure: Tolerates more sun than many Japanese maples but thrives in a position with morning sun and some afternoon shade to intensify leaf colour.
Watering: Keep soil consistently moist, especially during warm weather. Avoid waterlogging.
Soil Type: Prefers slightly acidic, well-draining soil enriched with organic matter.
Pruning: Minimal pruning required. Remove damaged or crossing branches in late winter or early spring.
Fertilisation: Use a balanced, slow-release fertiliser in spring to encourage vigorous growth and glowing foliage colour.
