    My neighbors have a nice one in their yard. Maybe a little midnight landscape "pruning". ;)

    What, American-made maples aren't good enough for you?

    guaranteed you can get one in Corvalis at any nursery..they have some of the best selections in the state in my opinion with the Agricultural Research dept at OSU being world class....great place to plant shop and nice town to have a cup of coffee after!

    I used to live and work on a farm/nursery out between Newberg and Sherwood. They grew a lot of different trees and catered to the 'Japanese garden' type of style. The name of the company was Kurisu International. May be worth checking out?

    My mother works for an independent contractor (it's really her and one other woman) in Portland who specializes in plant maintenance, and she has ties to nurseries and gardens all across the area. If you'd like, I can send you a PM with her contact info, and she can point you to some deals.

    My parents have a Japanese Maple in their back yard, and they love it.
