Acer palmatum 'Black Lace' is a distinctive cultivar of the Japanese Maple species, renowned for its unique and eye-catching, lacy, black-purple foliage. The deeply dissected leaves give a delicate appearance, contrasting elegantly with the robust and adaptive nature of the tree. This deciduous tree is relatively compact, typically reaching heights and spreads of up to 8 feet, making it a versatile choice for a variety of garden spaces.

The 'Black Lace' prefers partial shade but is adaptable to full sun, where the leaf color tends to intensify. It thrives in well-drained, moist, and fertile soils, and requires regular water, particularly in hotter climates, to avoid leaf scorch. Winter hardiness and a general resistance to pests and diseases make it a relatively low-maintenance choice for landscapes.

The dramatic foliage is a year-round interest, as it undergoes seasonal changes. Spring ushers in the fresh, deeply colored leaves, which turn into a vibrant crimson-red in autumn, providing a striking seasonal display. The intricate leaf texture and vibrant color transitions make Acer palmatum 'Black Lace' a sought-after cultivar, often used as a focal point in gardens, providing both aesthetic appeal and architectural interest.
