Re: Pictum Okamotoanum Not sure what that is, but it isn't Acer pictum. Looks closer to Acer platanoides. Here's real Acer pictum, note the similarity to Acer cappadocicum, with simple triangular, untoothed lobes: http://aoki2.si.gunma-u.ac.jp/BotanicalGarden/PICTs/itaya-kaede.jpeg
Re: Pictum Okamotoanum Scroll down for a picture of what you were supposed to have gotten. Maybe it was grafted onto what you got instead, the scion having failed and the rootstock being grown in its place. Or they are just selling the wrong item. http://homepage2.nifty.com/chigyoraku/Pchina.html
