Acer palmatum 'Sango kaku'

This is a MUST have for anyone desiring a Japanese maple.  From its light green leaves in the Spring, to the golden foliage in Fall, it's most spectacular attribute is the red bark which appears in the Winter.  Commonly call the Coral Bark Maple, it grows wonderfully in full sun, will handle afternoon shade, and is easily limbed-up to show the beautiful and graceful structure this tree holds.
