Acer shirasawanum Red Dawn
A great newer Shirasawanum with large leaves that takes sun and wind and cold just fine. Great fall color …it shines like a red sunset in the late fall evening. It is Considered a “red” Full Moon Maple and seems to be a tree that adapts to conditions in an easy manner. It has a reddish glow all summer but is brilliant in spring and fall, a real winner in my book
