Small tree which typically grows in an upright, rounded, cascading form that will be about as tall as wide. Young plants are mostly upright. They develop a cascading form with maturity as the slender branches become pendulous near the tips. Palmate leaves (to 3" long) are deeply cut into 7 lobes each having toothed margins and pointed tips. Foliage emerges light green with orange tinted margins in spring, matures to a rich green in summer and finally turns bright red, orange and gold in fall.
