Acer japonicum 'Aconitifolium'
Full Moon Maple
Sometimes called Fernleaf Fullmoon Maples, the 'Aconitifolium' will grow slowly to 8-10' tall in a mound and bushy habit. The cultivar name refers to the fern-like foliage which resembles that of monkshood (Aconitum). People also correlate its common name, Dancing Peacock, with its spectacular and feathery fall show of brilliant scarlet fall color. The green leaves are deeply dissected into 9-10 wide lobes. This maple has something to offer even before the leaves appear in the spring,with small reddish clusters of flowers that give way to samaras that ripen late summer or early fall. No serious insects or disease problems, round out the 'Aconitifolium' as a must have in any landscape. Zone 5-7
