Mikawa Yatsubusa’. This small maple is considered by bonsai experts to be one of the top three cultivars in regard to shape and branching. The leaves are slightly larger than those of other small Japanese maples, emerging bright green before changing to a fresh medium green for the summer. The fall color is a yellow-orange. The leaves grow in clumps and are slightly shingled atop one another. Since Mikawa Yatsubusa grows slowly to 5 feet in height, it makes an excellent choice for container planting.
