Wet Heron
Nure sagi
I think 'Sagi Heron' would be a good compromise between the Japanese and English names. The leaves on this tree are about the same color as those of 'Bloodgood', and have some of 'Moonfire's blue opalescent quality in certain light. It's a formal or refined form compated to the above.The leaves are smaller, and although usually holding their color well, may have some greening in the hottest part of summer. 'Nuresagi' is a hardy and vigorous tree, though lacy and delicate in appearance, lighter and airier than 'Bloodgood'. Bark develops white striations similar to Snakebark maples. Fine bright red fall color. It should grow to around 20'.
