'Sharps Pygmy' Grafted Japanese Maple

Sharp's Pygmy is ideal for bonsai because it maintains small leaves and compact growth even when heavily fertilized and growing quickly. Takes on natural broom style very well. A rare dwarf selection, 'Sharps Pygmy' is fantastic in both the landscape and as stock trees for propagating bonsai material. As is standard practice in the nursery trade, these are sized by container.

Note that this species is deciduous and will not have leaves if shipped during the winter. The trees pictured are representative examples and will not be the exact trees you receive.
