Acer palmatum ‘Moonfire’, commonly known as Japanese Maple ‘Moonfire’, is a cultivar prized for its striking, deep maroon foliage that intensifies to a vibrant, fire-engine red in autumn. It is a small, upright, deciduous tree with a rounded crown, reaching a mature height and spread of around 3-4 meters. ‘Moonfire’ is favored for its ability to retain its rich color throughout the summer, especially in sunnier locations, and its hardiness, making it suitable for various garden settings
