Grandma Ghost, Akane, Peaches & Cream and a regional, Terrell's Tree (Found only at Garden Design Nursery). If you go there make sure to check out their Radiant, Very beautiful tree. Not sure if I can post a link but the website is the name plus .com

I have plenty of afternoon shade or mostly all day spotted shade for these.

Both Grandma and Peaches will appreciate the all day filtered shade - that reticulated foliage tends to be sensitive to strong sunlight. I have Akane myself and it is a beautiful little tree, especially with its fresh spring coloring. It can take a fair amount of sun.

The regional selection looks very interesting!! Hopefully they will get that into larger production.
