What Japanese Maple is this?

[ChristianDGreat]

Hello,

Would it be okay if you guys can help me identify what cultivar or variety of maple is this?

I got it on a festival (fair) and not sure what it is

Thanks
Chris

Your tree is a Japanese maple.
From a festival stall it is very likely to be grown from seedlings so no cultivar name.
Even if it was cuttings from a recognized variety there are so mane that look similar you would be only guessing to apply any cultivar names to most JM. Without a pedigree they just become Japanese Maples.

That is not a bad thing. Standard JM seem to grow better than many cultivars. Pruning and care is the same for most JM so no need for a special name.

Very likely the plain species, Acer palmatum.
One of the best to work with...
