Acer takeshimense is not a tree for a small garden. It grows reasonably quickly (10 years) to 25′, but if you have the room it is a killer. The leaves are dark green in summer, glossily orbicular (my favorite shape), but the fall color shreds (this is a modern youth word, I believe, which means ‘is fantastic’). It is listed as a subspecies of pseudosieboldianum and as such would be super hardy.

Ogurayama, as you can see, is a small round-headed tree; the leaves have a sort of gold cast in the summer, and altho this photo doesn’t catch it, there is a lot of gold in the fall color. The leaves are a little more oblong and somewhat larger than Sode no Uchi.
