Acer palmatum dissectum 'Garnet' (Garnet Threadleaf Japanese Maple)

Award winning
Best leaf color in partial shade
Low maintenance
Little pruning necessary

With a dense, spreading, cascading form, this plant will weave its way through your landscape with a highly textured brush featuring its large, broadly dissected threadlike foliage that begs to be touched. This hard to resist foliage emerges in early spring bright red then matures to a stunning, substantial purple-garnet red color in the summer. Finally, the color show comes to an autumn climax with a piercingly warm orange color that is definitely one-of-a-kind. This combination of unmatched form and unmatched foliage color has made 'Garnet' one of the most decorated trees in horticulture including winning the Royal Horticulture Society's Award of Garden Merit.
