Let me know if the bloodgood compacta is truly compact or just a marketing gimmick to sell bloodgood for bonsai material,I believe I know where it came from and it was sold as bloodgood originally,now it has a fancy name.
Post your Bloodgood's new leaves...or any red maples...

Mad at me lol. Leaves are small and petioles short. I went WAY too hard on the roots, and I knew it.
Most of the leaves look healthy though and I hope it grow better throughout the summer. One of my favorite trees in the small collection!
Oh and my cat used the Trident and Yew as a scratching post once upon a time
!

Shin deshojo. Nicely sized leafs for bonsai
I've had trouble getting some established on their own roots, but once done, it grows quite vigorously.

My Deshojo in late March.

The first looks like Bloodgood, which gets some green tint in the summer even in full sun.
The 2nd one looks like my Fireglow. In full sun, if you look from the bottom, the leaves glow scarlet red.

Another red leaf favorite of mine, tsukusigata. Its leaves are on the edge of too large for bonsai (there is a similar variety, Umegae, with smaller leaves). Dark red, in fact 'chocolatey', in reflected light and the yummiest red is transmitted when back lit (exactly why most red maples are loved). Also interesting is that the leaf veins and petioles stay green.
Both are the same even though one more green today.
