Acer Palmatum Dissectum 'Watnong' (Watnong Weeping Japanese Maple) is a beautiful deciduous tree with a cascading, weeping habit and finely dissected foliage. Its leaves emerge in spring with a vibrant reddish-bronze hue, maturing to a deep burgundy in summer before turning fiery shades of red and orange in autumn. This variety is prized for its dense, finely textured foliage and striking seasonal colour transitions.
Grafted onto a standard trunk, Acer Palmatum Dissectum 'Watnong' develops an elegant, umbrella-like canopy, making it an ideal feature tree for Japanese gardens, courtyards, or decorative pots. It thrives in full sun to partial shade and prefers moist, well-drained soil. Providing a sheltered position will help protect its delicate foliage from strong winds and harsh afternoon sun.
