Acer palmatum Kasagi yama

Acer palmatum Kasagi yama

A very hardy red reticulated leaved Palmatum ... likes some shade but can take just about any location  and area conditions. This JM is not a fast grower but gets bushy not tall unless trimmed . It really does well in this area. Give it a bit of morning sun and it will be a stunning tree for you in about any location. It seems to thrive in adverse conditions for me...so if you place it well ..I have grown this one for years in full sun and it does burn a bit mid summer as most JMs do in full sun ... but it strikes back with a ton of new growth late summer and is a beauty in fall A great tree in spring and fall and not bad in summer ..in part or full shade this one will be boffo all season, zowie!!! trees with reticulated leaves are really a fav of mine and this is one of the best and hardiest
