Acer palmatum 'Peve Starfish' Japanese Maple Zone 9 Upright formWhat a fantastic little tree! Such a character with all that curl and texture. The lobes of each leaf curl inward to form a sharply pointed star creating incredible texture. The spring is bright red changing to deep purple summer, almost black and scarlet red in the fall. A slow growing tree with upright form excellent in a container for year round interest. Needs protection from afternoon sun. Attributes Leaf Shape Palmate Growth Habit Small Shrub
