Acer shirasawanum

Garden Glory

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.

 

 

 

 


 

Heat Stress

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.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Lime-green "full moon" leaves on a tree that grows at the rate of a foot a year for the first 20 years or so. A rather upright, columnar form. Fall color is a fine pumpkin orange. The name is really inappropriate; this is not the kind of tree that inspires a religious experience, but it is a tree that is attractive in all growing seasons, a nice tree for a neat, well-tended Republican but socially moderate yard.

 
Size #2 trees are available beginning September 1, and can be ordered until March 1. Starting in November, they can be shipped bare-root to save shipping costs. These trees are in very limited supply; many cultivars are not available in this size.

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.
