Acer palmatum Beni hime
A very cool dwarf that many use in containers . it has VERY VERY small leaves . Tends to be a bit tender when young and likes more sun and an open area not a good understudy tree. It should do great Bonsai. This is not a tree for colder areas except in a container but a worthy addition to any collection.. very vivid reds. pronounced " He May " NOT HI ME..
