Emerald Japanese Maple

The Emerald Japanese Maple, scientifically known as Acer palmatum Emerald Lace, is a striking outdoor tree prized for its finely cut, lace-like leaves. This variety stands out with its vibrant emerald green foliage that gracefully drapes from its branches, creating a cascading effect that adds elegance and movement to any garden space.

As the seasons change, so does the Emerald Lace Maple’s foliage. In spring, the tree unfurls its delicate leaves in a bright green hue, which remains lush throughout the summer. Come autumn, the leaves transform into a stunning display of crimson, making it a true showstopper in any landscape.

The Acer palmatum Emerald Lace prefers a well-drained, moist soil and thrives in a partially shaded location. It’s a slow-growing tree, making it ideal for smaller gardens, patios, or as a focal point in larger landscapes. While it is relatively low maintenance, regular watering during dry spells will help keep it at its best.
