Pollination Info for Green Laceleaf Japanese Maple (Acer palmatum var. dissectum 'Viridis')
The Green Laceleaf Japanese Maple (Acer palmatum var. dissectum 'Viridis') is a popular ornamental tree known for its delicate, lacy foliage and striking green color. While this tree does produce small inconspicuous flowers in the spring, they are typically not showy or significant for pollinators.
Pollination Type
Green Laceleaf Japanese Maples are primarily wind-pollinated, meaning that they rely on the wind to carry pollen from the male flowers to the female flowers. The small size and inconspicuous nature of the flowers make them less attractive to pollinating insects.
