Many of you have asked what kind of tree it is and from what information I've been able to get, it's in the maple family, but that's all I know. I happened to see it as I was driving through a neighborhood near our house and it was so stunning I just had to snap a picture.
I can't get past The Cunning Runt's comment. What a riot!
I think the tree is a Japanesse Maple. One of those with a difficult to prounce name. They're exquisite every time of year. Those particular leaves are so lacy and delicate, and they dry beautifully for use in a fall arrangement.
Acer Palmatum Red Dragon lace leaf, commonly refred to as the Japanese Maple. It is a stunning example of this slow growing tree. This example would be a a good few decades old.
Thanks for sharing. I had one in my garden in the UK and I miss it.
Such a beautiful tree. I love those japanese maples, they always put on such a wonderful show!! Thank you for the kind comment on my blog. I enjoyed reading through yours.
I'm interested in almost everything. Use to like to travel, but it's too expensive now. I take Tai Chi classes, swim, volunteer in a Jump-start program for pre-schoolers. I'm an avid reader and like nearly everyone these days I follow politics avidly. I'm a former teacher and Special Projects Coordinator for a Telecommunications company, Assistant to the President of a Japanese silicon wafer manufacturing company. Am now enjoying retirement -- most of the time. I have two daughters, one son-in-law and two sons scattered all over the country. No grandchildren.

I have never, ever, seen a red mushroom tree. I looks like a giant fungi growing out of the ground. Not a poisonous 'shroom growing there, i hope...
