Acer palmatum Dissectum is a small, mound forming Japanese Maple with highly ornate, deeply dissected foliage. The feathery foliage is a strong lime green, turning striking shades of golden yellow, orange & red in the Autumn. For the best Autumn colour, plant Dissectum in acid soil, or mix in some ericaceous compost. Lime soil will still be tolerated and a well-draining soil is preferred.
Growing to just 2 x 3 meters in 20 years, Acer palmatum Dissectum is a very small ornamental tree that makes a wonderful feature in small gardens and an ideal backdrop for other plants in larger gardens. It also looks fantastic next to a pond or in a Japanese style garden.
This Dissected Japanese Maple is hardy but prefers a sheltered position. Dappled shade is ideal, protecting the delicate cut-leaf foliage from the harsh sun which can be drying, as can prevailing winds.
