New
cultivars and larger sizes:
Many newly grafted cultivars are added to our list after they leaf out around
mid-April. Others, including small, rare, and hard to graft cultivars, are
added in September. Once a cultiver sells out, it remains so until the following
spring.
Maples ordered in summer may have burned leaves, and look bad, but this is only temporary. Still, spring and especially fall are far better times to ship and plant than summer. We'll delay shipments when temperatures exceed 90 F.
Probably an American
renaming of the old cultivar "Nigrum', widespread in Europe. A
distinguishing characteristic is the silvery pubescence covering the
leaf in spring as the leaf is unfolding. This is very distinct trait,
making the cultivar easy to identify, as well as especially beautiful
in spring. If the tree has it, it will hold its color better than most
red dissectums. This traditional form is large, growing to as much as
15' in 50 years. It has a good, rich red color which it holds through
the summer in shade, but which may fade somewhat in sun. Fall color
is a bright red.
Orders
placed between mid-March and mid-June may take 3 weeks to ship. For faster
service, order in the fall, an excellent time to plant. We can ship in winter,
but read this to see if it's a good idea for
you.
