Acer japonicum
Mountain Shadow
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.
I'm always confusing
this tree with Fern Leaf (A. japonicum 'Aconitiifolium'). The
main difference seems to be that the leaves on 'Mountain Shadow' are
considerably larger, which makes them quite large indeed. The leaves
are also a bit thinner, and held more stiffly away from the branches
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.
