The cascading habit of this lovely, vigorous but compact Japanese Maple (Acer palmatum dissectum 'Viridis') forms a mound of delicate, laceleaf foliage that suggests a feathery umbrella. The leaves emerge bright green in spring and maintain that color through summer before turning shades of vivid orange with gold and crimson highlights. The well-known, green, weeping cultivar produces vigorous growth but stays compact.
