Structure that sells: The Acer palmatum assortment made to standout!
Acer palmatum remains one of the strongest ornamental lines for adding structure, foliage contrast, and seasonal interest to the premium assortment. This selection combines finely cut laceleaf varieties with upright red-leaved forms, giving buyers a broad visual range within one recognizable species.
Six standout Japanese maples:

- Deeply cut green foliage
- Strong yellow, orange, and red autumn colour
- Classic laceleaf character
2. Acer palmatum ‘Emerald Lace’
A vigorous laceleaf Japanese maple that adds movement and freshness to the assortment with bright green, feathery foliage. Its arching, mound-forming shape gives this variety a lighter look within the Japanese maple range. Available in P9.
- Vigorous, mound-forming habit
- Bright green finely divided foliage
- Arched branching
- Red autumn tones

4. Acer palmatum ‘Orangeola’
