That bright blue pot is perfect for that Japanese maple!
Thanks for the vid. Potting 2 maples today.
That tree was a fantastic deal!!There used to be a Japanese maple nursery about 15 minutes from my house. I bought a small tree about the size of yours, and it cost $300! That was 12 years ago. The tree is doing great and has grown a ton. It is beautiful and one of my favorite plants in my landscape.
I absolutely love Japanese Maples in containers! Beautiful!
Thank you. Glad you enjoyed it.
Love it. I also have one to plant glad to have seen this video. Thanks for the advice
Just stumbled across this video and I love it! Thanks for sharing this.
(Ta - moo - key - yamma) is how it's pronounced. One of the very best and most classic and durable of the Japanese weeping lace leaf maples. Great choice!
It’s beautiful! ❤️
Love it. Thanks for the video
That tree looks great in that pot.
I have one and had to replant this morning it because it wasnt doing well. I think leaf scortch, but it's my first time every having a garden, so Im learning little by little. I can't get enough of these Japanese maples though. I just want mine to do good.
Thanks for the good info when it comes to potting. Might try that next...
Love your little corner!!🥰
Honey Bee thanks for watching and commenting!
awesome ty for sharing
I’ve purchased several pots from Ollie’s . They do have great prices !
Can we get an update
Looks beautiful. I do it slightly different. I use pot in pot. I take the plant with the black plastic pot and drop it in. As it grows I move up the pot size. I just find it difficult to upsize when the tree has been in the pot for years and the sides of the pot taper inward at the top. It doesn’t look as pretty as yours though.
We have one in our front yard, it's a beautiful tree
The Citystead yes it is. I love it. Thanks for watching.
Thanks for the video, great job. Always happy to watch a fellow Ollie's Army member. How is the tree this year?
It is doing great!
Looking forward for un update 👍🏻
Thanks. I just got a Tamukiama yesterday and a pot for it (The pot was 36$). Wow, I have never been to Ollys. Got to do that!
I’m glad you enjoyed the video. Yes Ollie’s is awesome.
I want to buy one of these plants, but wasnt sure if I could put it into a nice big fancy pot, but I was so glad I watched this video. I have 3 of them so they will be going into the pots. Thanks Mr Geek. xx
Your welcome!
Hi, we saw you on fb. New subscribers, What a beautiful tree! Does grow more like a shrub?
FarMoore HomeStead hi thanks for checking out my channel. It is a tree it is just a slow grower so it hangs out in the bush size bracket for many years before it finally gets big.
Hello, I just got a red maple today and found this video really helpful. Before I put mine in my pot I just had a few questions for you, 1. is that just regular potting soil? Such as for flowers? and 2. I read it was good to mix compost into the pot? Thoughts? Thank you!
Yes it is potting soil. And yes, you need a good container/potting soil. Mixing in some compost is a good idea because you need to feed the tree. I also really like Espoma Biotone and would recommend putting that in the soil as well to give the roots a boost.
I planted a cassia fistula in a pot 🌱
will the maple survive a Zone 7 winter if left outdoors?
Thanks
Joe
It should. The trick is to pick a plant 2 zones lower that your zone to survive in a pot. Most Japanese Maples (including this one) are hardy to zone 5 so it is 2 lower than 7 and should survive just fine.
@@HorticultureGeek ty!
I am going to do this - I have a pot (same type) and color - love this idea - will it winter ok outside? - I am in Ohio.
Hi Brent. I would consult your local garden center to see if they recommend leaving potted trees outside in your winter. Here in Arkansas our winters are so mild we don’t have any issues with it.
Is that a Tamukeyama?
What size is the Glazed Terra Cotta pot ?
15 inches wide and 28 inches deep.
What are the names of the potting soil you used?
That is the members mark potting soil from Sam’s club. But I’m not picky for a certain brand. I also use several other brands as long as it it a good potting soil for containers and will allow for good drainage. Hope that helps.
Beautiful tree... wondering why Japanese Maple trees are so darn expensive... I want one but I hate the price, maybe one day I'll bite the bullet and invest in a refundable/returnable Japanese Maple tree soon.
Felecia Wallace they are so expensive because they grow so slow and very sensitive to cold, wind or too much heat. It should be planted close to your house or something to hide from extreme exposure to wind, cold or heat.
I spent $140 on mine and it's dying lol. I moved it today so I'm hoping the shock doesnt kill it, but it would have died if I didnt, so time will tell. I love it (well images of it when it was healthy lol) I got the Ice Dragon variant. Its too expensive to die on me!
Got one at Walmart today for $15 very little tho
wouldnt use just potting soil - stays too wet
I have had great success with this potting soil so far. The tree is doing wonderful. However if someone is using a potting soil that is too thick and not well draining I agree that would not be ideal. At that point adding things like perlite or fine bark nuggets would help to lighten the soil and allow for better drainage. Thanks for watching and commenting.
Good video, a bit too much fluff at the beginning… I did a bit fast forwarding, and got to the heart of actual planting of the tree.
I do like to talk. 🤣😂🤣😂 glad you found it useful in the end.
