Awhile back I found a local company that sells many native trees and shrubs. They're prices are really good and selection is excellent and they specialize in cold hardy trees and shrubs.

Earthscapes, inc.
10403 State Route 48
Loveland, Ohio 45140
1.888.683.0144

I gave them a quick call as they didn't list the Acer grisuem on the website, but the lady I talked to just now said they have them in one and two gallon containers.

Good luck!

thanks SO much for the quick response. I'll make a trip there, I've been looking for this tree for awhile! Thanks again.

Marvin's Organic Gardens(MOG) on Rt 42 between Mason and Lebanon(NE of Cincinnati) have them in 3 gallon pots for 34.95. Nice trees for the price. They were in hoophouse #6 when I visited on Thursday. And they have a sale going on - don't know for how long - buy one at regular price and get a second one for a penny - on all their stock if I was told correctly

Does anyone know of a retailer near/in Cleveland that sells paperbark maples?
thanks,
