Acer palmatum 'Oto hime'

Thie is a very nice dwarf. It has a great green color. Leaves are very small. Can burn a bit in full sun

 

here is the fall color for 2011

 

I had a very hard time with this little as a new graft. I think i received this one in Aug 2019. It was the first leaf out in 2020 and I thought it wasn't gonna make it. Luckily it survived and have been doing fine this year.

This one does not do well for me in full sun and it is a very slow grower. I wonder how old I will be for it to reach the size of the one in @amazingmaples pics.

 

I think it's finally adjusting to my climate. The buds are just now starting to swell.

 

I can see the basic construction of a traditional "moyogi" bonsai: first branch, back branch, second branch...

It looks good! ;-)

 

thanks Alain. thats exactly what i see every time i walk pass it.
