Acer shirasawanum 'Royalty' is a red full moon Japanese maple. Unlike most full moon Japanese maples with their large, rounded leaves, 'Royalty' has very long, narrow leaves. These leaves are dark red in the spring and very attractive. Summer typically turns the leaves to a yellowish green. Fall color ranges from yellow to orange to red. 'Royalty' is a very nice upright growing tree that is quickly becoming a favorite here at the nursery. 'Royalty' will grow into a small to medium sized tree, perfect for most landscapes.
