Acer japonicum Fairy Lights
This unique cultivar is similar to the Green Cascade but smaller and in my opinion more colorful in fall. It simply glows in that autumn light and holds that color for a nice period of time . During the rest of the season it is quite beautiful in every respect . It has become a favorite of mine in very short time. This one is a must have
Not technically a dwarf but stays very short.
It originated as a seedling from Acontifolium
