Acers

All the Japanese Maples are propagated at the nursery, and are either grown from seed or grafted onto understocks to produce a high quality plant.

The Maples grown from seed are grown in a 9cm pot, when they are 2 years old they are either suitable for bonsai or for growing on into a larger pot for planting out in the garden.

All the named varieties of Maples are grafted on vigorous 2 year old  understocks and then grown on for at least a further 2 years to produce a saleable plant in a 3 litre pot.

A proportion of plants are then grown into 7.5 litre pots, these are then potted into a 20 litre pot and eventually up to a 230 litre, the Maples can be 15 years old and over 8 foot in height.

Please see stock listing to see the availability.

Maples are easy to grow, as long as you remember they do not like 3 things:

1     wet, bogy areas

2 windy sites

3 Late hard Spring frost

It is best to come and visit the nursery, to see the full range of varieties and sizes available, but if you are unable to visit, please do not hesitate to contact us; either by phone or e-mail. If you are looking for a particular plant, it is possible for us to send a digital photo to you if you have e-mail.
