	Dwarf and semi-dwarf trees A great many dwarf grafts failed this year. Cultivars marked 'Sold Out' will usually not be available until next year, but this year a few may be added in the next few weeks, and still others in September. Some cultivars may not be available some years, and will remain marked 'Sold Out'. We can't predict availability in advance.
Trees under 6' tall are generally regarded as dwarfs, and semi-dwarfs could be as tall as 12-15'. This seems sensible when you consider that some Japanese maple cultivars may reach more than 30'. However, the size of a given cultivar is often a matter of dispute. Read three books by experts and visit three different nurseries, and you are likely to get half a dozen different quotes as to the height of a given cultivar. This makes a grouping by size somewhat arbitrary, but those listed here as semi-dwarfs are generally of small stature, suitable for smaller gardens. Laceleafs are not listed in this group, nor are threadleafs, although they may in some cases be smaller than some of the semi-dwarfs that are. Although most any cultivar is suitable for bonsai, dwarfs are in great demand because they can look good sooner. Demand has also increased as we have trended to toward smaller gardens. A problem with great demand is that dwarfs grow slower and offer less material for grafting. This may increase their price and limit availability.	Akita yatsubusa SOLD OUT
