I recently found an ad online selling some 3 feet tall Japanese Maple for only 25 dollars each...so i took the chance and went to grab it. it is labeled as "Acer Atropurpureum Leaves are doubly serrated and hold their dark red colour throughout the season"...its got fine burgundy leaves..
The tree is grafted..
now the questions.
1. It is still in it's original pot, the previous owner said she just left it right beside her pool..out in the sun..and for the past few days at where i live...there wasn't much rain at all..and it was constantly around 30C to 32C with humidity. Some of the leaf on the tree were crispy.....anything I should worry about?
2. It is July now..is it too late for planting it into the ground? i understand that the tree needs close to 2-3 years to adapt itself into a new surroundings.
3. How much feeding and watering should i be doing? When i got the tree..the soil in the original pot was very very very dry...I did do a bit of watering and feed the tree with Plant-Prod ® Evergreen & Shrub Fertilizer 30-10-10. I do not want to over fertilize the tree...any suggestions?
Thank you all for reading...and the helping suggestions.
