Consistent variegation decorates the large, light green to light brown (and all the colors between), deeply divided leaves of this small, upright broad Japanese maple. One of the best reticulated varieties, it can show so many colors at one time, especially in the spring and early summer. Foliage turns golden orange in fall. Also know as 'Elmwoodie' and 'Elmwoodii.'
