Acer palmatum Crimson Prince
This hardy cultivar has obviously NOTHING to do with the common dissectum Crimson Queen. It is a nice, not so small palmatum like a Bloodgood with an uncanny ability to hold its red well all season. Add this to your collection of "better than Bloodgood" JMs, it surely has a place where you just have to have another great red upright that isn't simply a seasonal one ( spring and fall like many)
