Acer palmatum 'Sharp's Pygmy' Dwarf Japanese Maple

Acer palmatum 'Sharp's Pygmy' is a dwarf cultivar selected in the 1980s, reaching 5-6 feet tall and wide over 15 years. The deeply lobed leaves emerge bright green with prominent ridging and sharp-pointed lobes, and transition to orange and red tones in autumn. Its dense branching habit, thickened trunk, and compact form make it well-suited for containers, rock gardens, and bonsai cultivation.
