Acer palmatum

Please can someone tell me what the latest figure is for the number of named Acer palmatum cultivars...... Approx!
I was sure I had read on the forum it was over 3,000 now. But cannot find the post again.
Thanks

 

Hi,

World Checklist of Maple Cultivar Names by Hugh Angus & Peter Gregory (first Edition) lists over 3500.
