Acer palmatum Itami nishiki
A constantly color changing cultivar highly dependent on location … Leaves tend to be shiny which is cool, giving it a glistening tone at certain times during the season . The reds are very nice and the greens are tinged with gold/yellow. A nice upright small tree and has fast become a fav of mine.
