Acer palmatum 'Looking Glass Falls', is a weeping Japanese Maple. In the springtime the leaves emerge with a purple-red border on a bright green leaf. The habit is extremely cascading. 'Looking Glass Falls' is a new selection of weeping Japanese maple from the Area 51 Collection™ at MrMaple that has recently also been added to the Pendulous Treasures Collection™. 'Looking Glass Falls' was found by Matt and Tim as a chance seedling from the lineage of ‘Nakakamado Weeping'. If staked, 'Looking Glass Falls' may reach 5-6 ft in height by 4-5 ft in width in 10 years. If not staked, 'Looking Glass Falls' may make an intriguing ground cover or tree for a hanging basket. In the fall, 'Looking Glass Falls' turns to a bright red. 'Looking Glass Falls' is named after a popular waterfall in Western North Carolina.
