Acer Palmatum Dissectum 'Garnet' (Garnet Weeping Japanese Maple) is a stunning deciduous tree with a graceful weeping habit and finely dissected, feathery foliage. This exquisite variety displays rich garnet-red leaves throughout spring and summer, maintaining their vibrant colour even in warmer climates. As autumn arrives, the foliage deepens into fiery red and orange tones, creating a spectacular seasonal display.
Grafted onto a standard trunk, Acer Palmatum Dissectum 'Garnet' forms an elegant cascading effect, making it an excellent feature tree for courtyards, Japanese gardens, and decorative pots. It thrives in full sun to partial shade and prefers moist, well-drained soil. A sheltered position is recommended to protect its delicate foliage from strong winds and hot afternoon sun.
