Acer Palmatum 'Inaba Shidare' 150 Gallon

Acer palmatum ‘Inaba Shidare’ — Weeping Japanese Maple

Cascading form. Deep crimson elegance.

The Inaba Shidare Japanese Maple is a celebrated weeping laceleaf cultivar prized for its deep burgundy foliage, finely dissected leaves, and graceful cascading form. With its naturally arching branches and sculptural silhouette, this tree introduces movement, texture, and rich color to luxury garden spaces.

Throughout spring and summer, the tree maintains a velvety crimson canopy that holds its color exceptionally well, even in warmer climates. In autumn, the foliage intensifies into brilliant scarlet tones, creating a dramatic seasonal focal point. Its layered, umbrella-like structure makes it ideal for courtyards, entry gardens, water features, and contemplative landscape settings.

Best suited to partial shade with protection from intense afternoon sun, ‘Inaba Shidare’ thrives in well-drained soil and consistent moisture. Its refined scale and slow, deliberate growth make it perfect for specimen planting, container display, or elevated garden compositions where detail and form are paramount.
