Nursery contributed plant descriptions

The deeply dissected leaves of this compact Japanese maple emerge a very light lemon yellow and become lime green in summer, producing an refreshing two-tone effect. In fall, foliage changes to orange and yellow. Lemon Lime Lace forms an irregular mound
This apt name describes the colors of these lace-like, dissected leaves as they emerge pale yellow and change to lime-green giving a two-tone effect in the process; a 6-12' mounder with semipendulous branches. S-Sh/M
The leaves of this interesting lace leaf emerge a very bright lemon-yellow, becoming lime-green in the summer. The leaves create a lovely two-toned effect from early summer onwards. Fall color is orange.
DISSECTUM, two-toned green. The plant is the name! All we can add is what a delicious sight it is to see the twirl of lemon sherbert and lime sherbert in summer as the light yellow leaves continue to emerge while others darken to an apple green. Then in the fall, deep tangerine, what a treat! It's dissected lobes are long and its leaf stems short, creating a dense but irregularly mounded specimen.
