Abby's Weeping Dwarf Full Moon Japanese Maple is a rare, dwarf full moon maple prized for its graceful cascading form and brilliant seasonal color. In spring, finely divided leaves emerge a soft green, often touched with bronze, creating a delicate lace-like texture that adds elegance to small gardens or containers. Despite its refined look, this maple is surprisingly hardy and adaptable.
By summer, Abby's Weeping Dwarf Full Moon Japanese Maple continues to provide lush greenery with its arching branches creating a gentle, weeping mound. Compact in stature, it's perfect to create an ideal focal point in limited spaces, courtyards, or around patios. Its restrained size and low, dome-like growth habit make it especially versatile for both traditional landscapes and modern garden designs.
The highlight of the year arrives in autumn when the foliage transforms into a fiery spectacle of red, orange, and purple hues. This dazzling fall display brings a burst of color that rivals much larger landscape trees. Hardy in zones 5-8, Abby's Weeping Dwarf Full Moon Japanese Maple is an excellent choice for gardeners seeking a unique, compact Japanese maple with year-round charm and dramatic fall color.
