More about this plant

Jeddeloh Orange is a small weeping lace leaf Japanese maple, about 7 to 8 feet tall and 5 to 6 feet wide, with a low branching form and a very strong weeping habit similar to Crimson Queen. Its deeply cut, dissected leaves emerge with orange and red highlights, mature to green with orange red margins that contrast against red new growth, and finish in brilliant shades of gold and orange in fall. It is a slow growing deciduous tree for a moist, well drained soil with shelter from hot afternoon sun, and its size suits a container, a patio or a small shaded bed.
