Baby Lace purple ghost As typical with witch’s broomsBaby lace is the first witches broom from a dissectum to be discovered. Baby Lace is an interesting lace leaf maple that has leaves that are half the size of normal dissectum leaves. The leaves emerge reddish orange and them become bronze green for the summer. Baby lace becomes about 3 feet tall after about 10 years eventually forming a roundish, dense shrub. Morning sun afternoon shade.
