To grow Acer palmatum dissectum Atropurpureum, plant it in a location with morning sun and afternoon shade. Use well-drained, slightly acidic soil rich in organic matter. Maintain consistent moisture, avoiding waterlogging, and apply mulch to retain soil moisture and regulate temperature. Prune minimally to remove dead or damaged branches in late winter or early spring. Protect from strong winds and harsh afternoon sun. Fertilize with a balanced, slow-release fertilizer in early spring for optimal growth.
