Acer Green Cascade - Bare-Rooted

Acer japonicum Green Cascade is an exceptional small Japanese Maple known for its striking, pendulous form and finely dissected, weeping foliage. The leaves are a vibrant green throughout the spring and summer, providing a lush, tranquil appearance. In autumn, the foliage transforms into a brilliant array of gold, red, and orange, delivering a spectacular seasonal display.

Perfect for adding a focal point in Asian-inspired gardens, alongside ponds, or in mixed border plantings, the Green Cascade thrives in partial shade but can tolerate full sun in cooler climates if adequately watered. It prefers moist, well-drained soil that is slightly acidic. Its unique cascading growth habit makes it an ideal choice for elevated planters or terraced gardens where its beauty can be fully appreciated from below.

Reaches a mature height of up to 2m high and a spread of 3m. 

What is a bare-rooted tree?

Bare-rooted trees are deciduous trees that have been grown in the ground and are dug up when they've become dormant in the winter. The soil is shaken from their roots and they are bundled up with their roots packed in moist material to prevent dehydration during transport. 

What are the benefits? 

  • Less packaging and plastic waste involved in growing process and transportation. 
  • Plant has more root mass as the roots have not been constricted and twisted by a pot.
  • They are easier to carry and plant as they are extremely lightweight.
  • Bare-rooted trees are cheaper as they do not come with soil and pots. 
  • Planting bare-rooted trees in the winter follows the natural pattern of the seasons.
