Acer palmatum 'Burgundy Lace' - Japanese Maple from Quackin Grass Nursery

Acer palmatum 'Burgundy Lace' - A beautiful full moon-shaped shrubby tree that was developed in the U.S. The dark orb is densely cloaked with red wine-purple deeply incised and serrated leaves placing it in the category as one of the ribbon-leaf forms. Leaf color is steadfast with some bronzing occurring only in the late season. This is a cultivar not often seen... gee, go figure: unusual plants at Quackin' Grass. Shocking. Great in full sun to half shade, we would recommend partly shaded sited in the more southerly parts of its range with hot afternoon sun avoided. Fertile, draining soil for all Japanese Maples is fundamental to satisfying culture. If a gardener has the space it is understandable that one would become a collector and would attempt to grow each and every cultivar available! That's a collection that would demand a visit. Small, well-rooted starter tree from cutting... not grafted.
