Germain's Gyration

Acer palmatum 'Germain's Gyration' is a vigorous lace-leaf Japanese maple distinguished by its notably horizontal and twisting branch architecture, which creates a distinctive spreading form. The finely dissected foliage emerges bright green in spring and summer, transitioning to orange and yellow tones in autumn. This cultivar grows at a moderate to fast rate, reaching approximately 5-6 feet tall at maturity with a semi-weeping habit, and performs well across a range of growing conditions.
