Acer palmatum Lutescens
There are two forms of this tree. Both are very nice and have great color. Can take sun well and have good form and substance and luminescence. Either is a winner in my book. I have planted out several and they are cold hardy and can take sun. It is a small sturdy tree with very pretty leaves with an open form and a season long pleasure with fabulous golden fall color. This is a fav of mine!!
