Shin deshojo 5/4/07
This is an elegant tree, far brighter and more intense in color than the wonderful Deshojo. It also holds its color for many weeks, and even while greening for summer, it's still interesting.
After removing a thicket from a canyon behind our home in 2003, we started learning about Japanese maples, became obsessed by them, and now have about 400 different varieties of Japanese maples. Each year we find new and wonderful varieties, meet other maple collectors and growers, and our garden has become a sensation.
