Acer palmatum 'Hess Red Select' 
Red Japanese Maple

Zones 5-9

‘Hess Red Select’ is an upright classic red Japanese maple that was made by Hess Nurseries of Cedarville, NJ, in the early to mid 1900’s. ‘Hess Red Select’ leafs out in the spring as brighter red, turning to darker maroon. During the summer high heat, ‘Hess Red Select’ turns a darker maroon which seems to hold fairly well. ‘Hess Red Select’ may reach 8-10 ft in height in 10 years.

This rare red upright isn’t often found in the nursery trade but makes a beautiful tree in the landscape and garden.
