Cutleaf Japanese Maple 'Ao-shidare' (Green Weeping Laceleaf)

Cutleaf Japanese Maple 'Ao-shidare' (Acer palmatum var. dissectum 'Ao-shidare') is a green-leaved weeping laceleaf. The name 'Ao-shidare' translates to "Green Weeping," accurately describing its cascading habit and green foliage.

Its finely dissected leaves are a fresh green throughout the growing season, turning vibrant gold and orange in autumn. The branches weep strongly, creating a beautiful mound or curtain of foliage when staked or planted on a slope.

It is a vigorous grower for a dissectum and tolerates a bit more sun than red varieties. An excellent choice for a water feature, wall, or large container where its weeping form can be showcased.
