FOR PICKUP ONLY | Acer palmatum 'Black Lace' Japanese Maple | DOES NOT SHIP

Acer palmatum 'Black Lace' is a deeply dissected Japanese maple with dark burgundy-purple foliage that transitions to bright scarlet red in autumn. The leaves exhibit a matsumurae form, deeply lobed with finely serrated edges on each lobe, creating a lacy texture that distinguishes it from other red upright cultivars. The tree develops an upright, ornamental habit reaching approximately 10-12 feet tall by 7 feet wide over ten years, with dark purple bark that complements the foliage. According to the growers at Mr Maple, this cultivar was discovered in the Netherlands and is a relatively fast grower capable of over a foot of annual growth; its intense darkness makes it exceptionally effective for creating contrast in the garden, standing out even when paired with other red maples.
