Re: Acer griseum Golden Lucky Congratulations Alex! Very beautiful. I also managed to get hold of one of these this winter, but you have a better climate. Mine is only just swelling the buds. Griseum is always later here.

Its amazing that a variegated leaf cultivar of Acer griseum even exists, considering the limited genetic diversity of the available nursey grown trees. I currently have an Acer griseum 'Copper Rocket' and planted an Acer griseum 'Fireburst' just yesterday. I would love to have this cultivar as a third, though there probably isn't a single specimen in the USA or Canada. If anyone knows how I can obtain one, please let me know. In the meantime, please share more pictures @alex66 & @emery !
The wholesale nursery that developed & grows these cultivars is J. Frank Schmidt & Son Co. Some nearby Washington state retail nurseries had them in stock.
@Worldly_Wrangler thanks for sharing. I checkouted their website. They carry and have produced some very nice stuff. Im so envious of yall on the East Coast.
