Acer palmatum Bihou
A very nice smaller color bark tree with great yellow/red branching in winter . I would consider it a semi dwarf The leaves on this tree are very small which is always a plus for an upright tree making this one special. A perfect accent tree with great winter color... much better than Sango and more manageable for smaller area. I put this in the dwarf section because it is dwarf like but a smite bit larger.
Introduced into Europe from Japan in France.
