Acer palmatum var. dissectum ‘Waterfall’
Acer palmatum var. dissectum ‘Waterfall’ is a particularly ornamental Japanese maple with finely cut foliage, prized for its cascading, weeping silhouette that creates an elegant effect in borders, rockeries, or intimate landscape nooks. Its delicate, soft green foliage brings a light and refined texture to the garden in spring and summer, then takes on warm autumn hues (red, orange, yellow, depending on the climate) that enrich landscape scenes at the end of the season. Hardy and perfectly adapted to shaded or semi-shaded locations, this maple prefers moist, fertile, well-drained soil and partial to light shade to preserve the richness of its colors and the fineness of its form. Its moderate growth and graceful structure make ‘Waterfall’ an exceptional choice for contemplative gardens, ponds, or delicate focal points.
