Acer palmatum dissectum 'Garnet'

Common Name: Garnet Laceleaf Japanese Maple

Acer palmatum dissectum ‘Garnet’ is a classic weeping laceleaf Japanese maple prized for its rich garnet-red foliage and strong, cascading form. Spring growth emerges deep red, quickly maturing to a dark burgundy-red that holds its color exceptionally well through summer, even in brighter conditions than many dissectum types. The finely cut, threadlike leaves create a soft, flowing texture as branches arch outward and downward, forming a broad, elegant mound. In fall, ‘Garnet’ intensifies to brilliant scarlet and fiery red, delivering one of the most dependable autumn displays among laceleaf maples. The habit is low, spreading, and gracefully weeping, making it an excellent focal point in the landscape. It performs best in partial shade and prefers well-drained, evenly moist soil, with protection from harsh wind.
