Japanese Maple Substitute


Zone 4 is too cold for Japanese maples, and the amur maple (acer ginala) is oftentimes recommended as a substitute. 
 
Does anyone have any experience with an amur maple planted around their hostas?  Does this maple have the same invasive root system and moisture requirements as the larger maples do?
