Japanese Maple Green Laceleaf 'Waterfall' 7 Gallon

Acer palmatum dissectum 'Waterfall'

This cascading Japanese maple possesses dark green, lace leaf foliage that has a longer, flowing appearance. Its fall color is outstanding with golden-yellow leaves infused with orange and red. Use in foundation plantings, as a focal point, or in large containers. This graceful specimen grows well in a sheltered spot away from high winds and full, hot sun. Japanese maples make excellent understory or part shade landscape specimen, provide year round interest, and can be planted near Black Walnut trees. They are rabbit resistant, and prefer moist, rich, slightly acidic but well-drained soil. Combine with Azaleas, Hosta, and ferns. Plant in well-drained, amended soil. Water well after planting; maintain 1? of water once a week the first year. Little pruning needed; shapes itself nicely. Remove dead branches or trunk suckers any time. Feed early spring and mid-summer with a slow release fertilizer. Follow label instructions. Mulch 2? to suppress weeds, retain moisture and protect against extremes of soil temperature. Benefits from winter protection.
