Description

This is the rare high-graft version of the Lemon Lime Lace Japanese Maple, a beautiful cultivar with a rounded mounding canopy grafted atop an 18-inch trunk. The branches are covered with finely dissected leaves that emerge light lemon-yellow in spring, maturing to lime green with yellow-green new growth in summer, creating a two-tone effect, hence the name. Cooler temperatures in fall bring shades of orange and gold, sometimes deepening to orange-red. At maybe 6 feet tall and 6 to 8 feet wide when all grown up, Lemon Lime Lace is a soft-textured, stunning focal point specimen in the landscape or as a potted patio tree.
