Acer palmatum Johnnie's Pink
A very pretty short upright with super cool leaves .. they are not the finely lobed leaves but are wider and more exceptional, similar to the hawthorn tree in leaf shape, double toothed and slightly divided. Tree is multi colored and outstanding. Does great in summer in full sun but a bit of shade is probably a good idea .. It is hardy although there are those that think zone 6 and warmer is best .. I have seen no problems with it .. Ideal for a small garden placement or a special corner that needs a bit of pizzazz.
