I need help with a couple new trees I bought this week.
I was told by the owner that they are just "mountain Maples" from Japan. But the bark is very rough and not what I have seen in any book before other than in the Arakawa family. He said that they are not Arakawa.
These are not grafted and I was told that the seeds of this variety will produce a decent percentage of rough bark maples just like these! He said that they do very well in the heat where I live unlike other varieties. He is very knowledgeable, but there was a bit of language barrier.
All I know is that I am in love with these trees and I already have 5 air layers going on these guys.
What do you think? Please help id these.
