Green laceleaf, weeping Japanese maple  matures to a naturally formal mounded cascading weeper. It can be pruned for a "mushroom cap" appearance, or left unpruned so that its branches weep clear to the ground. Red-highlighted orange-gold autumn colors, holding its wondrously colorful leaves for several weeks before falling.
