Overview & Specifications
Acer palmatum dissectum 'Viridis'
A refined, weeping laceleaf maple with finely dissected green foliage and a sculptural cascading form. Grown to advanced size, 'Viridis' arrives ready to anchor a composition, delivering the kind of quiet, structural elegance that defines considered landscape design.
Why Viridis
Weeping laceleaf form: A naturally cascading silhouette with strong sculptural presence year-round.
Finely cut green foliage: Delicate, deeply dissected leaves introduce texture and softness to structured plantings.
Reliable autumn colour: Transitions to warm yellow and amber tones each season without fail.
Compact footprint: Typically reaching 2–3 metres in height with a broader spread, suited to intimate or layered compositions.
Proven longevity: A long-lived specimen that rewards the right placement for decades.
Ideal Applications
Focal specimen planting: Positioned as a standalone feature within Japanese-influenced or contemporary landscapes.
Courtyard and entry design: Cascading form reads with precision in constrained or architecturally framed spaces.
Large container planting: Performs exceptionally in oversized pots where the weeping habit can be fully expressed.
Layered planting schemes: Introduces soft texture and movement among more structured or evergreen plantings.
