'Shojo shidare' is a rarer form of weeping red laceleaf that often isn't found available in the nursery trade in the United States. The habit is more hooking and cascading than other similar red laceleafs. According to Yano's Book for Maples, 'Shojo shidare' was first introduced in 1975 and sold in the Kanagawa Prefecture. The red color on 'Shojo shidare' holds better in the summer than many red laceleaf selections. The fall color on 'Shojo shidare' is bright red to deep red. "Shojo" means deep red, while "shidare" means weeping.
