Acer palmatum Gold Reticulated
I have really liked this tree in the short time i have had it . It is a very nice variegate with subtle colors .. quite pretty and not at all testy or "needy" as some green variegates are. It seems very sturdy and vigorous and can take some sun.It holds it's variegation much better than Peaches and cream with the added benefit of a great reticulated leaf form. I give this one two thumbs up !!
Zone 6, but some claim to have grown it in Zone 5, so be wary.
