The Viridis Japanese Maple, also known by its scientific name Acer palmatum var. dissectum 'Viridis', is a deciduous tree native to Japan. It's known for its finely dissected, lace-like leaves, weeping growth habit, and vibrant green color.
Here are some key features of the Viridis Japanese Maple:
-
Foliage: The leaves are finely dissected, giving them a lace-like appearance. They are a vibrant green color in the spring and summer, turning a golden yellow with hints of crimson in the fall.
-
Size: This tree typically grows to a height of 4-6 feet and spreads 6-8 feet wide.
Small non-showy umbels of red flowers bloom mid-spring followed by samaras. Grows best in rich, moist, slightly acidic well-drained soils. Prefers full sun in cooler climates, but needs afternoon shade in southern areas.
