Cutleaf Japanese Maple 'Viridis' (Green Laceleaf)

Cutleaf Japanese Maple 'Viridis' (Acer palmatum var. dissectum 'Viridis') is the quintessential green laceleaf maple. Its finely dissected, lace-like foliage is a fresh, bright green throughout spring and summer, turning brilliant shades of gold, orange, and red in autumn.

It forms a graceful, cascading mound, typically wider than tall, with a beautiful weeping habit. 'Viridis' is one of the most popular and reliable dissectums, valued for its vigorous growth, sun tolerance (relative to red dissectums), and spectacular fall color.

It thrives in partial shade but can handle more sun than many red-leaved varieties, especially in cooler climates. An excellent choice for a focal point in a shaded garden or near water.
