Acer palmatum Bump's Red Seed
A really cool nicely shaped tree full with larger leaves . As the name stated it's bright red seeds held way into the summer and fall against it's summer green leaf color is eye catching and very pretty . This is a very very nice sturdy mid sized tree. Does great in full shade or mostly sun. VERY study and has become a fav of mine unfortunately not always available. and usually just in larger sizes. I have one in an area where I sit to relax daily sometimes in my hammock and have grown to really love it. In a shady area like mine it tends to be more shrub like growing more outwards than up. Even if it greens out the seeds stay red throughout the season
