Japanese maple, whose scientific name is acer palmatum, is a woody plant species native to Japan, Korea, China, eastern Mongolia and southeastern Russia.
It is also known as palmate maple, or smooth Japanese maple (Japanese: irohamomiji, or momiji), and is a deciduous tree, usually growing as a shrub or small tree, reaching 6 to 10 m in height.
The leaves are 4–12 cm long and broad, lobed with five, seven, or nine pointed lobes.
This tree has been cultivated in Japan for centuries, then spread to temperate regions around the world since the 1800s.
