Acer palmatum Fujiyama
This one is not well known. . Why??? I don’t know…maybe some don’t appreciate how cool it is … The leaves are perfect shaped and do not burn easily … the green during summer is strikingly deep . The fall colors are like a rainbow and the shape is perfect. This one is my current favorite in this group.It is both hardy and can take some sun but is a slow grower and won't soon outgrow it's space .. I have one in my front yard . This is one of the best newer JMs hands down
