Bloodgood Japanese Maple

Acer palmatum IDed by distinct dark red spring foliage; rounded crown and overall shape; maple-like, deeply lobed palmate leaves with 5-9 tipped leaf blades and serrate margins. I also referenced Columbia University’s listing of trees. You can tell it’s not another Japanese variety because this tree is whole-leaf not lace-leaf (the leaves have a flat surface and are not feathery).
