Dwarf Type Japanese Maples may be laterally spreading, ball-forming, or dense, slow-growing uprights to 3-12'.
Trees under 6' tall are generally regarded as dwarfs, and semi-dwarfs could be as tall as 12-15'.
Although most any cultivar (or cultivated variety) is suitable for bonsai, dwarfs are in great demand because they can look good sooner.

The name 'Aratama' means "uncut gem".
Highly desirable dwarf red cultivar. Leaves are brick red to purple red with a contrasting green mid-vein, only grows to 6 feet in 10 years and has a dense, twiggy appearance. Well suited to landscape use and takes full sun well.
Beautiful bright red spring foliage on this dwarf has no hint of purple. Summer brings green into the center of the leaves with only a touch of red remaining on the margins. The tiny leaves turn yellow, orange and red in the fall. Aratama is one of the first trees to come out in spring and somewhat tender and susceptible to late frost damage.
