Acer palmatum/ Japanese Maple atropurpureum bonsai (red leaf) with red summer leaves. Grown from seed by the previous owner over many years (decades), the tree has a good age demonstrated by the maturing bark.

Height reduced slightly during winter 2023.

The maple has been newly slip-potted into good quality soil after being rootbound for a number of years. I would recommend allowing it to grow in its new substrate at least until Spring 2025. A good nebari is already developing.

Good tight ramification, no wire marks and short internodes. The tree can be wired to get the best out of the tree. I am expecting that all of these trees will grow substantially this year having been given fresh soil to grow into.

There is a very good quality tree in there!

As with all bonsai available on the bonsai4me.com/shop, this tree has been treated with Danu from ProBio Carbon to encourage disease resistance and bushier, better distributed growth habit.

Current height of actual tree 27"/69cm
