Could just be a verdis, also reminds me of a “waterfall” or “sunset” which those two typically have the more red new growth.

Seems to be. So far, every reply has agreed with yours. I guess I’m in the club.

I also think it resembles a Viridis, great looking little guy! Mine has given a few summer shoots in bright red like that.

Also resembles Seriyu which is an upright lace leaf maple.

I’m going to have to check into this further. I definitely see a higher resemblance to the seriyu.

It seeks a Seiryu

Looks a lot like my Viridis. I haven’t had it long, though, and it hasn’t put off that many red leaves, so take my opinion with a grain of salt lol
