Bloodgood’ is a non-dissected type that grows into a small, rounded, deciduous tree which typically grows to 15-20′ tall and features purplish-red flowers in spring, deep reddish-purple summer foliage, red samaras in late summer to early fall and good crimson-red fall color. As with many maples, the flowers are rather attractive close up. Palmate leaves (5-7 lobes) are 2-5″ long. May also be grown as a multi-stemmed shrub.
