Acer palmatum EP
This is a superior JM for the south does okay in heat. I have been unable toi get it for a couple years since some mistakenly think it is not as good as Heffner's red. I not so humbly disagree .. my EPs do green out a bit in summer but stay super nice all season .they are pretty fast growers.. In addition they are super hardy and too particular of where they are planted .. I really like this plant
