It is officially fall foliage season for Japanese maples, and we are here for it.
Luis Vallejo calls this "Yama momji" Japanese maple. "Yama" is mountain and "momiji" is Japanese maple (Acer palmatum). So you'll sometimes hear this variety referred to as Mountain maple, which is the original, naturally occurring, non-cultivar Japanese maples. Because of the differences in the leaves, I'm guessing that this was originally several different trees that were planted very close together, rather than a clump style planting.
