About this Emperor One Japanese Maple Bonsai, 19 Years Old (Acer palmatum 'Wolff')

Acer palmatum 'Wolff', sold under the name Emperor One, is valued for foliage of a deep burgundy-red and for the poise of its branch structure. This tree is 19 years old, 21 inches tall and 18 by 20 inches wide. The variety grows with real vigor and holds its color unusually well from the spring flush through to the end of the season, which is what distinguishes it from red maples that dull by midsummer. It is deciduous, dropping its leaves in autumn, and is kept outdoors.

Japanese Maple bonsai care

This is a living Japanese Maple (Acer palmatum). Before you buy, this is what it will ask of you:

Indoor / outdoor
Outdoor only — it requires a genuine winter dormancy and will decline indoors
Light
Full morning sun with light afternoon shade in summer; protect foliage above ~85 °F (30 °C) to prevent leaf scorch
Water
Keep evenly and consistently moist — never let the rootball dry out, but do not leave it waterlogged. On the "wet" side of the spectrum.
USDA zones
5–8 (some cultivars tolerate 9; protect roots below zone 6 in containers)
#1 cause of death
Verticillium wilt (often introduced by dirty tools / summer pruning); also leaf scorch and root drying

Soil, repotting, pruning, seasonal work and the full pest and disease list are in our free Japanese Maple bonsai care guide.
