Love it
Came in leafs dried and falling off but healthy as a whistle. Still probably need to take care. Didn't do full research on them so I found they need dormancy, I threw it outside whnn temps started to drop. Hopefully the wild texas winter will allow dormancy.

Received in terrible condition and has since died
For some reason the shipping date and the estimated arrival time was two weeks. Common sense dictates that a small tree with with little or no water isn't going to arrive in good shape or even alive when it is in transit that long. This tree was just about dead when it finally arrived. All of the bottom leaves that had not yet fallen off were dried out, curled up and just about dead. They all have now falled off dead. The top leaves were very stressed. I planted it immediately watering it everyday to no avail. Apparently the dehydrated root system and main tree stalk had been damaged to the point the roots could not absorb much water and the tree stalk could not pass enough water up the stalk to keep the top leaves alive. The photo is right after I received and planted it. The tree has lost all but four nearly dead leaves at the top and is about dead.

Incredibly good quality and beautiful
Much larger than I was expecting.. very helpful. Planted immediately and they are doing great. It's been a month now. I'm very pleased.

Beautiful bright red tree
It's a small graft. Looks like the type I was looking for. The color is a brighter red than the emperor 1. The emperor 1 has darker leaves throughout the season. The shape of the leaves and size are about the same. This tree is still weak from the new graft. Unlike my other maple tree, you have to keep it in the shade for a few months before even putting it out to endure both hot or freezing weather.

Awful Product nurse to health
Do not buy they aren’t in good health!! Any local greenhouse or landscape yard will sell them in good health and in pest free good soil for just a few more dollars!!

Hoping it grows
I was expecting a 2year tree but this was not it! It’s is a branch, I was disappointed that it is not ready to plant. For $27 I expected a little more. Some of the leaves were dying or bug eaten.
