I found this little critter growing on the edge of my daylily seedling bed a couple of days ago. My husband was going to mow the lawn tonight, so I scooped it up and put it into a plastic pot.

Could this be a Japanese Maple seedling? The leaves are so odd on it... There is a Bloodgood JM about a 1/4 mile as the crow flies up the street from my house, but I'm not aware of any others in the vicinity (but then again, I haven't looked very hard either.)

Or will this just be a regular Red Maple when it grows up?

Any ideas appreciated.
