Soft and sophisticated, this dwarf laceleaf Japanese maple sports chartreuse green foliage with long narrow lobes. Leaves appear to be dripping from the branches! ‘Viridis’ grows in a compact draping form as a small weeping specimen in the landscape, or large containers. In spring, plants product tiny reddish flowers, followed by green samaras (seed pods) that ripen in fall. After foliage turn striking shades of gold & crimson in the fall, they drop to reveal the architectural weeping branch structure. If you have a small garden or patio, but still want the classic look of a Japanese maple, Acer ‘Viridis’ is the perfect specimen.
