Acer palmatum dissectum 'Viridis'

Weeping Green Viridis Laceleaf Japanese Maple

Zones 5-9

'Viridis' is a classic dwarf green Japanese maple selection with a cascading form. The 'Viridis' Japanese maple can reach 5-6 ft tall by 5-6 ft wide in 10 years. This 'Viridis' laceleaf Japanese maple leafs out as a bright chartreuse green that holds until the leaves mature to a rich green by mid-summer. In autumn, the 'Viridis' Japanese maple tree turns to a bright golden yellow to orange.

This classic 'Viridis' Japanese maple tree is excellent to provide contrast against red Japanese maples. You can use 'Viridis' as a background plant or as a focal point planting. Because of the dwarf cascading habit of 'Viridis', this Japanese maple makes an excellent tree for small space in the landscape or even for container planting. This can allow you to expand your garden with the beauty of a weeping green laceleaf Japanese maple.

After years of observation, we believe ‘Waterfall’ and ‘Viridis’ to now be the exact same cultivar in the nursery trade today. The original ‘Waterfall’ was likely a ‘Viridis’ that happened to be at waterfall at a state park in New Jersey. We still sell both cultivars as both are popular names people know this selection by.

 



Limited Quantities Available !! As we have over a thousand cultivars of Japanese maples, we often do not have many of each cultivar. We recommend that you buy the Japanese maples you want immediately as we often sell out of certain selections.

Legit XL

Purchased XL One Gallon Viridis Japanese Maple and it definitely was XL. Repotted it one size up. Most of the leaves were off which concerned me but a piece of paper inside the box said that this is possible this time of year. Did the scratch test and branches are alive. Tree has a great shape to it, put it in a container for now just to enjoy the branching and cool green bark. Delivery was quick, considering the issues with hurricanes in their area.

Super excited to watch this one grow. Although it arrived w/out leaves, I can't wait to see it in the Spring and fall next year. Super fast shipping and arrived in perfect condition! Thanks again!

Beautiful!

I can't wait to see it leaf out in spring! The 1 gallon XL was actually surprisingly large and shipped perfectly. Great addition to my ever growing collection ❤️
