Acer palmatum Ruth’s Red
This is another Bloodgood type tree but smaller. The big difference is that the red on this tree is phenomenal ten times as bright and flashy as it's taller relative(s). It just absolutely glows in spring summer and fall ... This one needs a bit of shade and is hardy but is a slow grower , so it would go in almost any placement for that special tree.
