The Inaba Shidare Weeping Japanese Maple is a decorative tree that introduces three seasons of color into a yard or landscape. This ornate tree features large, deeply cut foliage with a lacey appearance. The leaves are purple-red during the spring and summer but transition into a fiery crimson red during the fall. The leaves of the Acer palmatum dissectum gracefully hang from arching branches that give this darling tree a weeping look.

Plant this beauty in a bed, create a border or feature in a container. This fast-growing tree will quickly reach maturity and put on a lovely display each year. This tree has an upright growth habit and will grow 8 to 10 feet tall. The spreading branches will reach 10 to 12 feet wide. This darling tree makes a wonderful home to small animals and is favored by songbirds. Grow this plant as a perennial in USDA zones 5 through 8.

Inaba Shidare Weeping Japanese Maple Care

The Inaba Shidare Weeping Japanese Maple needs full sun to partial shade and has average water needs. Give the plant a drink weekly or when the top few inches of soil dry out. New trees will need regular water, but established plants can handle less frequent watering. Plant in rich, well-draining soil that is acidic to neutral.

Feed the Inaba Shidare Weeping Japanese Maple a balanced, slow-release fertilizer in the spring. This tree naturally maintains a rounded shape and does not need to be pruned. Remove dead or damaged growth as needed.

Inaba Shidare Weeping Japanese Maple Spacing

Once mature, the Inaba Shidare Weeping Japanese Maple will be 8 to 10 feet tall and 10 to 12 feet wide. Plant this tree at least 5 feet away from buildings and other plants. Use a 16- to 18-inch pot when growing in a container.

    Yesterday, I received the Inaba Shidare I ordered, marking my second purchase from Plant Addicts. As I embark on creating my own Japanese Maple garden, I am delighted to have such beautiful trees from your collection. The tree I received was brimming with vibrancy and in excellent health. I wholeheartedly intend to continue acquiring your stunning trees and will enthusiastically recommend you to my family and friends. Thank you for providing such a wonderful experience!

    This is probably through no fault of Plant Addicts, but as of 10 days since our order shipped we haven't received it. Our poor Maple tree is traveling the country....Alabama to Washington to Oregon to Utah....and if we finally receive it I doubt it will have survived. We are assuming that Plant Addicts will make good on our order by re-shipping a tree.

    This was my second tree. The first tree was damaged during shipment. The Plant addict team responded promptly and sent a replacement right away. It arrived quickly and was in excellent shape. Very nice tree. I would not hesitate to do business with them again.
