I like its umbrella-shaped crown and colour of leaves in the autumn.

It is Acer aconitifolium. One of very showy and fast growing acers.

if it fast growing it might be good for me to get for my very plant empty garden

thx for those facts.

But it is more spreading, then growing up. It has twice width compared to height.

i like that idea too... a spread would be good..

can it go in shade? cuz i have plenty of shade by apple tree etc..

What pretty leaves.

Jane, majority of acers prefer slight shade. So it would be optimal. This one is also protected by old apple tree from east and south. Thank you Melchi, yes, they are.
