Microphyllum
This is a smaller interesting A.s. with very cool leaves and unusual branching structure ... Thyere is some disagreement on size but that may be from it's slow growing nature . I have gone with the most current info that it is a smaller tree. The leaves are darker green on top and lighter on bottom and very differently shaped than other A.s. cultivars. This one puts on a spectacular fall display and holds it's leaves and color late into the fall... This is a good smaller super hardy tree to own and love
