Acer Palmatum - Seiryu
A one-of-a-kind from the dissectum group because of its unusual growth habit. This maple grows upright and does not weep. Very delicate looking leaf yet it resists scalding even when planted in full sun. Some literature notes yellow autumn colours, but we always get a superlative red. One of the best, and outstanding for use as a small specimen tree. Grows to 3 mtrs in ten years and 5-7 mtrs in maturity. The Japanese name translates into "green dragon".
