Oridono nishiki is often seen in garden centres and this and Ukigomo, Ukigumo, or simply must haves above and beyond anything else!
This one being a good mix of large amounts of green with white and pink and with Ukigomo having nearly all pure white leaves but misted or splashed with green all you need for a little dreamy looking forest is an Orange Dream/Katsura and a Bloogood.
Contrast people....CONTRAST!
For me, once you have followed and become familiar with my rules on these guys, I would always suggest four different colours and thse would be the first four.
Together they look amazing, not too many to keep an eye on and as you learn and keep them you can then spot more and its fun to work out which colours to place next to each other, not good for your back after a few years and they are hefty beasts, lol.
I like to keep the dissectums separate from the main Maples but grouped together.
