Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Pendulous foliage so finely and delicately dissected that it looks like mist gives this 6-9' cascader its name; an amazing accent. PSh/M

By: Forestfarm

A vigorous, cascading lace-leaf Japanese Maple with soft green, deeply-cut leaves that provide a soft "misty" appearance. Fall color is absolutely outstanding with blends of bright orange and red. Left on its own, it will grow into a spreading 3ft mound. Will need staked up if you want some height.

The color and delicate, pendulous foliage of this green laceleaf Japanese maple account for the name 'Green Mist.' The vigorous selection forms a cascading mound, and the deeply dissected leaves go orange-red in fall. Dissectum.

Medium-green lace-leaf maple. Although looks similar to 'Waterfal,' it is typically hardier and the fall color is a very pronounced orange-red.

DISSECTUM, green. This is a green leaf dissectum with a crimson hue over the green. The leaf is very deeply cut and turning deep red for the fall. Very slow growing.
