sorry let me redo ,
shindeshojo is the little bright red spring growth going darker greenred later , fine delicate stems ,
i would say the large leaf purplered hairy new leaves as defintily A palm atropurpureum if its an old one , hairy new leaves are a physical attritube of this type , not burgundy lace , leaves are not lacy enough
I have over 30 differnt maple typles currently , i was lucky last yr in USA picked up a maple ident book , absolutely best book ever , great pics of evrything and descriptions . was able to ident/ confirm 3 maples i had that were very unusual , unlabelled of course but couldnt find anything here bookwise that quite fit . had my suspicions but just not good enough pics and info .
cheers eyleene
