Japanese Maples: Garnet

Garnet

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.

A vigorous, relatively fast-growing cultivar, 'Garnet' will reach 10' or more eventually, and will be true to its name if grown in sun, becoming greener in shade. Its leaves are rather large and coarse for for a dissectum, and hold their color well in summer. It is regarded by nurserymen as easy to grow, and is one of the most popular varieties. Bright red in fall. Similar to 'Inaba Shidare'.

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.
