Acer palmatum Baby Lace

Acer palmatum Baby Lace

A very fine laced red Dissectum with unusual curly leaves giving it a really different look. Both colorful and Eye catching . Allegedly tender but worth keeping in a container. If you like to “baby” your “special” plants in a motherly way …this one is for you. Probably not for a beginner even if it's beauty is overwhelmingly tempting. I really love this dissectum but it is very finicky. Zone 6 tree but needs a protected area. 
 
First Dissectum Witches Broom discovered.
