Nursery contributed plant descriptions

A dwarf, dense, small leaf palmatum, this is a low-growing "shrub," about 18 inches high and with a spread up to 10 ft. in diameter. Leaves emerge green with pink edges on new red branches. Fall color might not be its forte (though some say it will be orange) but covering the ground is - and what a beautiful way to do it!

Considered one of the "table-top" maples with its low, wide habit. Rarely over two-feet high while reaching 8-10 feet wide. The small, five-lobed leaves emerge green with a pink edging. Great selection for bonsai
