Acer palmatum disectum 'Tamukeyama'
         
   'Tamukeyama' has been grown in Japan for around 300 years, it was listed in Japanese literature at least as early as 1710, but greatly ignored in the U.S. until the last 20 0r 30 years. Recently it has become accepted as one of the best dissectums in cultivation, and probably the best red dissectum for hot climates. 'Tamukeyama' not only tolerates but actually thrives in our hot Georgia summers even in full sun. It is one of the fastest growing laceleaf maples we grow, slightly more irregular and upright than other dissectums. New growth is dark purple-red in spring and fall color is bright crimson. Old specimens exist that are 12-15 feet tall.
