Acer palmatum Dissectum

Description

This delicate looking, lacy leaved Acer is a real garden classic. A compact and easily managed small tree, ideal for smaller garden borders as a specimen or in large pots and works especially well in modern style gardens too in metallic planters – a great urban garden plant.
The leaves are very fine and lace-like emerge each spring a lovely lime green, which deepens slightly over summer, then in autumn, it turns the most amazing orange, a wonderful finale to it's growing season – falling dormant to repat it's virtuoso performance all over again year atter year.
Reaching a maxmim of 7-8ft (2.2M) in 10 years, it's natural habit is slightly spreading, so has a large bonsai like style of growth. Great for oriental inspired themes. A real garden 'must-have' for low maintenance and style.
