I was wondering if anyone has tried this before. I have a small variety that only gets about maybe 2 or 3 feet tall max. I was thinking that the plant would have beautiful color because I can control how much light it gets. Maples are easily fried in the hot Georgia sun if your not careful. I know that they need a dormant period so I figured I can put it outside in the fall so the leaves would change and then bring it back into the room in the spring.
