Acer palmatum Killarney
This tree grows upright then weeps thus giving it a flat'ish topped shape. The form is more vase shaped than many. Any weeping JM even semi weepers like this one should be of interest to collectors since so few exist. The leaves overlap in a cool irregular pattern. It is a different and very cool JM with great fall color and very sun hardy as well as winter hardy
