    Does anyone know a source and have any descriptions ? I saw a pic, via internet. Looks like a real beauty.

    My source was Esveld. Unfortunately the graft rejected on the plant I received this spring, and it did not survive. (The understock was fine.) I have another coming in a few weeks.

    It is a very unique looking maple, the leaves resemble those of the nasturtium practically and at least on my little graft stayed quite flat during the 3-4 weeks it was alive. We shall see what happens next spring.

    Watch out!!

    From Invasive Plants in New Hampshire, NH Dept. of Agriculture Markets & Food Plant Industry Division:

    That applies to all cultivars of the species, as well as the wild type.
