Lots of Japanese maples here with their names listed !In April starting to water your trees on a regular basis is really important. Action taken now will ensure that Japanese maples perform really well during the year ahead. Wind can be a huge problem in the garden, position is very important!
Ideal for beginners or more experienced Japanese Maple growers, in these videos I will show what practical steps I take to keep my Acer trees healthy during a year of gardening!
I hope you will follow me in my adventures with these wonderful trees
This video will help you grow better trees and for those with more experience, who want to improve the autumn colour, health and general quality of their Maples. Colour can also be improved all year by giving trees the right amount of sun.

What I use to hold pots from tipping over is metal planter stands with legs flipped upside down… placing the pots inside the stand. The legs now become a sturdy support beam against the pots. Literally making them unmovable. This is visually more pleasing than staking, bricking or using other heavy objects. Otherwise invest in a heavy ceramic pot. Which is quite expensive.
That sounds like a good solution! Do you have I picture to share? Carl
I’m scared of overwatering my maples now, so this meter would be helpful for me to learn!
Watered mine yesterday, some dry some still wet, the meter takes the guesswork away. Best few £ I’ve spent 👍
Hi Carl I was a bit worried about my Bi Hoo not really getting going but it was nice to see yours at the same stage .
Hi David, yes its interesting that they seem slow to leaf out most years.. glad to know its not just me also lol
You, bought a new tree, well I never, lol. Just snuck a fire cracker in myself "mwah ha ha haaaaa"
Um actually I have bought 10... oops! Nice to here from you :)
That's how windy my garden is most of the time lol. My poor poor maples!
That Orange Dream of yours is a beast - you better declare it a new species :D
I wish I could replace all my fences with wind reducing ones like my gate! The rate it’s growing the Orange Dream will take over 😝
Trees look great as always! Nice job!
Thank you! Cheers! Carl
Nice collection! Thank you for pointing out that I need to add Cripsii to my collection.
Hi Gavin, it's a lovely tree and hope you can source one! Carl
So interesting.Thanks for sharing
Hi Wendy, Glad you enjoyed it!
amazing jms. good work brother 👏
Thank you so much 😀
Another Great video Carl!👌🏻 we just had some frost last night in the netherlands.. and some maples are really drooping their leaves:-( is this something that will recover of are those leaves done for this season? My bloodgood has some drooping leaves, but luckily not all. But my laceleaf dissectum shows drooping leaves all over the tree… Im hoping they will recover, interested in your expererience. i cant imagine you putting all of your trees inside when frost is forecasted..
We have been really lucky here in the the middle of the UK, no serious frosts at all this year. So they should regrow their leaves as they kind of have a second set available, although they might not be as strong. Adding a little fertiliser once the frosts are over can encourage new growth, which helps. Carl
@@Japanesemaples should I add fertilizer even though I added fertilizer a couple of weeks ago when the spring started? And should I cut off the leaves that are damaged or just wait for them to fall of naturally? Cheers
@@ferrydejagher2033 if you have just added fertiliser that should be fine. I would leave the tree alone for a week or two and see what happens.
-With smaller plants nurserymen go by weight of the pot as to whether to water or not.
-As much as wind is a nuisance, it does send a message to the plant to strengthen its limbs.
-Sad of character be he who doesn't stop to admire the spring colour of Mr. Jordan. I wish I could find the critter that is having a jaw on my Jordan. I guess if I were an insect, I'd choose that plant for a snack; can hardly blame it.
I was speaking to an Acer grower a few days ago, who had a friend in retail that just potted trees up to make more money! Cheeky really selling a pot with hardly any root system!
@@JapanesemaplesAs you stated in another video, when buying plants, always pull the pot and give the root system a thorough inspection.
Is that what Shaina looks like completely leafed out or is it going to fill in more?
Yes it will fill out more, I'll try and remember to put it in the next video for you! Carl
Hi, is it okay for bark to my touching the trunk? I see a lot of conflicting opinions and I'm not sure what to do, thanks.
I always try and leave a small gap and it’s certainly not a good idea to pile bark up against it. Carl
