I am sorry I do not have that variety. You might search the plant files and see if someone has one they might trade a split with you, or if your lucky get it for postage. I will try to look later to see if I might see one a bit cheaper.
Japanese maples are Acer palmatum or Acer japonicum. Some varieties can get down right silly as far as the cost. they will go to zone 5 to zone 6 depending on the cultivar. I will say if you have the room to do it I would try a few. A god crop, perticularly the thread leaf weeping and the ones that stay red through the year. I did manage to get a few of my orangeola's to sprout. its going to be neat to see what they become. I don't know if you are thinking of growing some just for giggles?
Rd maples are another good tree. I really do like them. I spotted some new seeds on my norway maple so Its going to be fun harvesting the propellars. weeeee
I hope to be back on arround 2:00ish with info....
