Acer palmatum 'Dissectum' (Pot Size 10L) Cut-leaved Japanese Maple sold by Boma Garden Centre

Acer palmatum ‘Dissectum’ is an elegant deciduous shrubby tree with deeply-cut, finely-dissected palmate leaves that emerge bright green in spring and mature to mid-green through summer, before transforming into a spectacular display of golden yellow, orange and vibrant red in autumn. The distinctive cascading branching habit creates a graceful, weeping form ideal for smaller gardens and containers.Plant in moist but well-drained, slightly acidic soil in a sheltered position with partial shade to bring out the best leaf colour, though it tolerates full sun. Water regularly during dry spells to maintain consistent moisture. This award-winning cultivar requires minimal pruning; only remove dead or diseased wood in winter to prevent sap bleeding.
