Acer shirasawanum Mr. Sun
This is very different from most Shirasawanum. it does have
many fingers like others but they are pointed and curved inwards leaf .Not too skinny , not too fat....just right. It was named because it resembled a child's drawing of the sun. It is similar to Holland 6910 but a slimmer leaf that is a bit smaller and pointed ...it is super cool and has become a fav of mine .. very very pretty can take some sun but burns in full sun by mid summer and is super hardy... colors are a season long delight
