New
cultivars:
Some newly offered cultivars MAY be added to our list after they leaf out
around mid-April. Others, including small, rare, and hard to graft cultivars,
may be added in September. Once a cultivar 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.
Pronounced "oooh cone", not "Yukon", but there's gold in that there tree, both in spring and in fall. In summer, the color changes to a light yellow-green with yellow mottling, which remains all season, adding a unique contrasting color to the landscape. The leaf petioles and branches are also yellow-green. Fall brings deeper gold and just a little red. It may reach 6-10', and is not recommended for the colder zones and needs afternoon shade. Everybody says this tree is slow and small, and it may ultimately be small, but it has been very vigorous for us when young, growing to gallon-size much faster than most. Similar to Aoyagi, including the green bark.
Size #1 trees ship after they leaf out, usually early to mid-April.
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.
