Palmatifolium medium sized maples Ukigumo tends to turn pink

Ukigumo tends to turn pink in the upper most exposed leaves

For the time being I am placing it with shirasawanums until more evidence suggests otherwise

Sun/ part shade is preferred

Very nice orange red fall color

Reportedly a cross between Acer shirasawanum and Acer palmatum
