Burgundy Lace is a beautiful upright maple which will grow a good canopy. I have it in full sun and it has never had a burnt leaf. Because it will grow wider at top, I have used it in dead center over some hostas and other things which needed a little shade, and placed it up against things to contrast colors. I submitted a photo so you could see the effect I am working on. Eventually it will tower over the fence behind it. This is an easy-to-find maple.

I have been propagating 'Burgundy Lace' from softwood cuttings for a few years. It needs morning sun and afternoon shade for the best color. It is a very good tree.

Positive Todd_Boland On Dec 20, 2004, Todd_Boland from St. John's, NL (Zone 5b) wrote:

This selection has relatively large, very deeply cut leaves with sharply serrated margins. The spring foliage is burgundy-wine, becoming green tited in summer then fiery red in autumn. This plant prefers some shade as the leaves have a tendency to burn in hot sun. It belongs to the Matsumurae Group.
