Acer palmatum dissectum (Weeping Japanese Maple Standards) is a graceful, deciduous tree with a cascading, weeping habit and finely dissected, lace-like foliage. Its delicate leaves emerge in vibrant shades of green or deep red in spring and summer, depending on the variety, before transforming into a spectacular display of fiery red, orange, and gold in autumn. This elegant small tree is a standout feature in any garden, adding texture and movement with its arching branches.
Grafted onto a standard trunk, Acer palmatum dissectum forms a rounded, umbrella-like canopy, making it perfect for courtyards, Japanese gardens, or ornamental pots. It thrives in full sun to partial shade and prefers moist, well-drained soil. A sheltered position helps protect its delicate foliage from harsh winds and strong afternoon sun.
