Acer palmatum dissectum 'Lemon Chiffon'
Weeping Green Laceleaf Japanese Maple

Zones 5-9

'Lemon Chiffon' is a gorgeous laceleaf. When given protection from the hot afternoon sun, 'Lemon Chiffon' leafs out with one off the brightest yellow new growths of any maple, which makes this extremely special for a laceleaf. In full hot afternoon sun, this growth may be more of an orange yellow which is still beautiful, but not as unique as this tree can be.

With this protection, this light lemon-yellow coloration holds on for the longest amount of time. By mid-summer the leaf changes to bright chartreuse green, similar to the spring color of other maples yet in the summer. The secondary flush of light lemon yellows over top of this chartreuse green is beautiful and breathtaking, especially on larger specimens.  The shape of 'Lemon Chiffon' is a spreading cascading laceleaf reaching 3 ft tall by 5 ft wide in 10 years.

This small stature makes it great for the landscape or when grown in a container. 'Lemon Chiffon' is much more lemon yellow on the new growth than 'Lemon Lime Lace, of which it is often confused with. Fall colors start out with a bright yellow, transitioning to flaming oranges with hints of red on the terminal branching. 'Lemon Chiffon' is a uniquely different from other laceleafs and makes a great addition to any garden.
