Japanese Maple 'Virdis' is a ornamental deciduous tree. A graceful weeping Japanese maple with finely cut, bright green laceleaf foliage that turns vivid gold and orange in fall — a beautiful specimen that contrasts wonderfully with darker-foliaged companions. Prefers moist, well-drained, slightly acidic soil in dappled shade to morning sun. Afternoon shade in hot climates prevents leaf scorch. Wind protection is beneficial. The ultimate specimen tree for focal points, courtyard gardens, and landscapes where exceptional foliage color, graceful form, and year-round elegance are paramount.
