Large Acer Palmatum "Shaina" Japanese Maple Bonsai

Acer Palmatum Shaina – is a stunning Japanese maple with beautiful branching that gives it the appearance of a perfectly formed miniature tree.
 
This compact, upright, round-leaved cultivar concentrates its dark maroon-red leaves in dense tuft or clusters at the ends of the short shoots. Its deeply divided leaves emerge a bright red in Spring, become a dark maroon-red for Summer, and turn bright crimson in Autumn.
 
Good to know: Richard P. Wolff of Red Maple Nursery, Pennsylvania, discovered a witches’-broom (another cultivar) on a 100 – year – old, 15 M tall Acer Palmatum Atropurpureum in the early 1980s, propagated it, and in 1984 named it ‘Shaina’  
 
Height: 65 cm from the bottom of the pot
