    Summer clearance maple

    @Scrogdor It was a sweet one time deal that's for sure. Sure wish they were still $30. I haven't seen many Japanese maples around recently. Last time I noticed one I think it was last year for something like $100-150 range. Seeds, cuttings, air layers, or buying 1-2 year seedlings and grow...

    Summer clearance maple

    Almost repotting time. The pot turned out to be a tad too small. Got a slightly bigger pot for this year's repot. Left the wire on too long in 2021 like a bonehead 😖 This little tree grew like crazy last spring. Left branch scars are likely too bad to keep the branch. Will decide at...

    Summer clearance maple

    @luvinthemountains I don't think I have pictures from the original root work on this exact one. If you go to the top of this post there are images from another one that I chopped and repotted at the same time. The root work with that one and this tiny one were very similar. As for that...

    Summer clearance maple

    Another trim and repot this spring. I got impatient and dropped this maple into a small pot. Can't wait for it to leaf out ! I am pretty please with this tree so far. It's come a long way from the 6 foot tall garden center landscape tree.

    Love Maples

    I have to use shade cloth once temps get above 90 in Texas. If I don't the Japanese Maple leaves cook. It is only the direct sunlight, they are fine with 100°+ F heat as long as they have enough water and shade. In my experience.

    Summer clearance maple

    I worked on one of these japanese maples today, the one on the left in my last post. I have had this tree for 3.5 years now. After working this tree today I am finally seeing some promising structure. Considering this was a straight 6 foot tall garden center tree 3.5 years ago I am very happy...

    Fall color thread

    I have 4 young elms that turn red instead of yellow. I really like these red ones.

    Silly trident seedling

    Well it's almost time for the big winter sleep for this little trident. A few lower leaves have already dropped. It has grown quite a bit this year for being in such a tiny pot. I had to rewire three times in 8 months and still had some minor wire marks. Fall color was not as bright as I was...

    Are you serious? What threads are you reading? I hit the site pretty regularly and there is a dust-up between a few people from time to time. I think this place is pretty tame for the INTERNET.
