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.
'Johin' is the
result of an interspecific cross between Acer shirasawanum and
Acer palmatum, so it's proper name is Acer x 'Johin', and it
could be called a Red Full Moon maple. The A. shirasawanum parentage
can be seen in the long, shallowly dissected, creased lobes, with the
red color lent by the A. palmatum parent. Particulars on this
tree are hard to come by, since it is newly created, but it seems vigorous,
so will probably be larger than the standard A. palmatum. A.
japonicum species can reach 30'. It may also be hardier than the
typical palmatum, which bottoms out at zone 5.
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.
