(Dissected Japanese Maple, Dwarf Green Dissected Japanese Maple)

This beautiful small deciduous tree comes from eastern Asia. It features lacy, deeply lobed, palmate (hand-shaped) leaves which are green from spring through summer and turn golden yellow in fall. In winter, the stark gray branches and elegant, weeping habit will add to any garden or landscape.

This Japanese maple prefers sites with fertile, well drained soil and sun to part shade. Like other laceleaf Japanese maples, 'Viridis' is versatile in the landscape and may be grown as a feature plant...

(Cutleaf Japanese Maple, Dissected Japanese Maple, Threadleaf Japanese Maple, Waterfall Cutleaf Japanese Maple)

Fine, lacy foliage, that’s the first thing that should come to mind when thinking about dissected Japanese maple.

Asian in origin, this deciduous tree tends to have a smaller stature than other Japanese maples and sports arching branches that give it a broad, mounded appearance. There is a lot of variation in leaf color and sometimes shape, depending on the cultivar, but overall leaves may be yellow-green or green to purple-red turning shades of purple, red, orange and yellow in the fall.

(Moosewood)

Although a rather scraggly plant in its native haunts in the forests of eastern North America, moosewood makes an attractive subject for lightly shaded garden sites. Typically forming a multi-trunked small tree or large shrub with beautiful green-barked branches, it bears large light- to medium-green leaves with three relatively shallow lobes. The leaves turn yellow in fall. Modestly attractive chains of small yellow flowers droop from the branches in spring, followed by two-winged fruits that mature...

(Painted Maple)

Painted maple is a handsome deciduous shade tree from western Asia to the Himalayas and into China. It becomes a V-shaped tree with a lovely rounded canopy. This maple's leaves are quite variable, but are always five to seven lobed, sometimes very star-like, and other times more blunt and almost heart-shaped at the base. Small, upright yellow-green flowers adorn the branches before the leaves unfurl slightly reddened in early spring. In the autumn, the leaves turn gold and yellow.

(Painted Maple)

This form of the painted maple is a handsome deciduous shade tree from China, Korea and Japan, locations much further east than the species. It becomes a V-shaped tree with a lovely rounded canopy. Its leaves are bluntly triangle-lobed, almost heart-shaped at the base, somewhat resembling the leaves of a tulip poplar (Liriodendron). Moreover, its larger leaves have smaller lobes on the usual lobes. Small, upright yellow-green flowers adorn the branches before the bronzed new leaves unfurl...

(Norway Maple)

Norway maple is a popular, fast-growing, deciduous shade tree that is native to regions across Europe. These trees have dense rounded canopies and large leaves that are medium to dark green in the summer and turn pale yellow, yellow or yellow-green, rarely red, in the fall.

This tree is tolerant of a wide range of sites and conditions but does best in locations with full sun to part shade and well-drained, average soil. There are two caveats to planting a Norway maple; it tends to self-seed...

(Norway Maple)

Norway maple is a fast-growing deciduous shade tree native to Europe but naturalized in the United States and elsewhere. Somewhat more irregular and open in habit than the similar 'Globosum', 'Almira' has a low broad domed canopy and dark green, five- to seven-lobed leaves that turn pumpkin yellow in fall. The leaf stems exude a milky latex if severed. Clustered yellow-green flowers – which are more abundant and conspicuous than those of many maples – are followed by winged brown seeds ('Globosum'...

(Norway Maple)

Norway maple is a fast-growing deciduous shade tree native to Europe but naturalized in the United States and elsewhere. Introduced in the mid nineteenth century, 'Columnare' is a tall cylindrical tree with ascending branches. Its dark green, five- to seven-lobed leaves turn pumpkin yellow in fall. The leaf stems exude a milky latex if severed. Clustered yellow-green flowers – which are more abundant and conspicuous than those of many maples – are followed by winged brown seeds. The bark is dark...

(Crimson King Norway Maple, Norway Maple)

Crimson King Norway maple is a popular, fast-growing, deciduous shade tree that originates from Europe. It has a dense rounded canopy and large leaves that are very dark purple. Its thick, dark colored foliage creates extremely dense shade making it difficult to grow plants beneath. This tree is very tolerant of a wide range of sites and conditions but does best in locations with full sun to part shade and well-drain average soil. Norway maples tend to self-seed aggressively and should be planted...

(Deborah Norway Maple, Norway Maple)

Norway maple is a fast-growing deciduous shade tree native to Europe but naturalized in the United States and other areas. The cultivar 'Deborah' has a dense rounded canopy and attractive wavy-edged leaves that are burgundy in spring, become bronze-green in summer, and turn orange-yellow in the fall. The clustered yellow-green flowers – which are more abundant and conspicuous than those of many maples – are followed by winged brown seeds.

Norway maple is very tolerant of a wide range of sites...
