.
Common name: Green Cascade fullmoon maple
Family: Aceraceae (maple family)

Comments: A unique selection prized for its weeping habit and lacelike foliage. Mature specimens may reach 8-10' tall and wide. It behaves more like a shrub than a tree. Leaves are palmately compound with 9-11 deeply divided lobes. Its rich green summer foliage takes on a brilliant yellow-orange and crimson fall coloration. A superlative specimen plant!
