Acer pal. ‘Red Pygmy’
(Initial revision 8 Feb 2010)
A nice little tree with graceful leaves, and light orange yellow fall colour that contrast well with other darker red fall colour. The ‘Red Pygmy’ we have is not as red as it used to be; not quite sure why – gradually reverting? We still like the look anyway. It is more than 18 years old, and is about 3.5 m high.
