"Waterfall´ is a top choice among small trees for all-season beauty. One source refers to this type of laceleaf as "shidare momiji", referring to it´s cascading (waterfall) form. ´Waterfall´ has a nice mushroom-shaped habit, and feathery foliage that is light green in the spring and summer, turning to an autumn yellow as the days become shorter. This will be an outstanding companion to any gardening setting.
