How to Plant Bloodgood Japanese Maple

Choose the Right Spot

Bloodgood Japanese Maples thrive in partial shade, receiving around 4 hours of direct sunlight daily. In hot climates, some afternoon shade protection is recommended to prevent leaf scorch. Well-drained, slightly acidic soil (pH 5.0 to 7.0) is ideal. Amend the planting area with organic matter like compost if your soil is heavy clay or poorly draining.

Measure the Space

Bloodgood Japanese Maples are compact trees, typically reaching 15-20 feet tall and wide at maturity. When planting multiple Bloodgood Japanese Maples, allow for 20 feet of spacing between each tree to accommodate their mature size and provide proper air circulation.

Dig the Hole

Dig a hole 2-3 times wider than the root ball of your Bloodgood Japanese Maple and just as deep. Loosening the surrounding soil encourages healthy root development.

Plant It

Gently remove the Bloodgood Japanese Maple from its container and loosen any circling roots. Position the tree in the center of the hole so the root flare (the base of the trunk where it widens) sits slightly above the surrounding soil level. Fill the hole back in with the excavated soil, gently tamping it down to remove air pockets. Avoid burying the root flare.

Water Thoroughly

Give your newly planted Bloodgood Japanese Maple a deep watering, soaking the soil thoroughly until water runs from the drainage holes. This helps settle the soil around the roots.

Mulch and Care

Apply a 2-3 inch layer of organic mulch, like wood chips or shredded bark, around the base of the tree, keeping the mulch several inches away from the trunk. Mulch helps retain moisture, regulate soil temperature, and suppress weeds. Water your Bloodgood Japanese Maple regularly, especially during its first year and hot weather. Aim for deep watering, allowing the top inch or two of soil to dry slightly between waterings.
