Acer palmatum Mikawa yatsubusa

‘Mikawa yatsubusa’ is a must-have for every Japanese maple lover.  Leaves emerge light green in spring, changing to a darker green for summer.  Fall colors range from yellow to bright red.  Leaves are carefully layered giving each branch a natural canopy look.  This tightly, dense maple may grow to 6 feet in ten years, making it perfect for bonsai culture.
