Shu Shidare Japanese Maple
Acer palmatum dissectum 'Shu shidare'
Acer palmatum dissectum 'Shu Shidare' is a cultivar of the Japanese maple tree (Acer palmatum). It's a small, deciduous tree with a weeping habit that grows up to 6 feet tall and 10 feet wide. Finely cut, lace-like foliage emerges reddish-purple, then turns a deep green in summer, and finally bright red, orange, or yellow in the fall. This cultivar is known for its graceful, cascading branches and beautiful, delicate foliage. It's a popular choice for ornamental landscaping in gardens, patios, and other outdoor spaces. It's particularly striking when backlit by the sun, as it creates a stunning effect of light and shadow. 'Shu Shidare' is generally easy to care for, preferring moist, well-draining soil and partial shade to full sun exposure. It is also cold-hardy and can withstand temperatures down to -20�F, making it a good choice for colder climates.
