A. p. 'Shin deshoojoo'

A. p. 'Shishigashira'
UPRIGHT  •  10' - 12'  •  ZONE 5-8  •  SUN-PT SHADE
Looking very much like bottle brushes, the branches of this unusual tree (also known as 'Lion Head Maple') are tightly packed with curly, crinkled leaves on short petioles (stems). In our area it keeps it's green color and its leaves longer into fall than most then bursts into vibrant yellow, orange and deep red. #1 @ $30.00; #2 @ $45.00; larger specimens available in 10" containers @ $65.00 to 125.00

Shojo nomura is similar to 'Bloodgood' but stays much smaller. #2 @ $45.00; larger specimens in 10" containers available @ 60.00 to 110.00


A. p. 'Sister Ghost'
UPRIGHT  •  4-6'  •  6-8  •  PART SUN – PART SHADE
This hauntingly beautiful ghost should inhabit the partially shady nooks of you garden.

A. p. 'Suminigashi'
UPRIGHT  •  12' - 15'  •  ZONE 5 – 8  •  SUN – PART SHADE

A. p. 'Tennyo no hoshi'
UPRIGHT  •  10-15'  •  5-8  •  SUN – PART SHADE
This is a rare, variegated tree. Narrow lobed, light moss-green leaves have cream boarders. The leaves are small for a tree that gets as large as this one does so the texture is soft. Fall colors are in the golds, oranges and roses. #1 @ 30.00; Large specimens in 10" containers available @ $70.00 to 90.00


A. p. 'Tiny Leaf'
UPRIGHT  •  3-4'  •  ZONE 5-8  •  SUN-PT SHADE

A. p. 'Trompenburg'
UPRIGHT  •  18-24'  •  5-8  •  SUN TO PART SHADE

A. p. 'Tsukigumo'
UPRIGHT  •  10-12'  •  ZONE 5-8  •  SUN-PT SHADE
Leaves on new growth differ considerably from those on old. The new growth is small, flat and 'normal' while old growth leaves are small and wavy; the edges turn upwards, curve downwards, cup inwards and curl outwards so the texture is quite unusual. Fall colors are golds and reds mixed. #1 @ 35.50


A. p. 'Tsukushi gata'
UPRIGHT  •  12-15'  •  5-8  •  SUN TO PART SHADE

A. p. 'Tsuma gaki'
UPRIGHT  •  7'-10'  •  ZONE 5-8  •  SUN TO PART SHADE
Spring leaf color is quite spectacular and ephemeral like the bloom of a cherry; it is bright yellow with the edges of current and raspberry juice.
