Viridis – Acer Palmatum Dissectum

Small classic dwarf tree with graceful laceleaf weeping cascading habit and excellent branching architecture. Viridis finely cut leaves emerge as a bright chartreuse green that holds color until the leaves mature to a rich green by mid-summer. In the fall , delightful shades of gold dominate with occasional splashes of crimson and orange. This is an excellent option as a background plant,  as a focal point planting, as an accent under larger trees, for small spaces in the landscape or for uses in containers.
