About the Laceleaf Japanese Maple<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Laceleaf Japanese Maple is one of our planet’s most beautiful landscape plants. The East Asian tree is close to the ground, with its average 4 feet height \u2013 but what it lacks in height, it makes up for in its width. The branches spread wide from the top of the tree to the ground. Laceleaf Weeping Japanese Red Maple is gorgeous with its trademark deep red foliage and leaves with jagged edges.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
