FERTILIZER
Neptune's Harvest all organic Fish and Seaweed Blend is a liquid concentrate to be mixed, one oz. to a gal. of water, and added to the soil or sprayed onto the leaves for increased health and beauty in both soil and plant. The fish and the seaweed components complement each other to supply the trees (and all your plants)s with a wealth of nutrients. It is made through a unique, cold process which preserves highly valued trace elements. Pint @ $8.00; Quart @ $14.00


A. griseum
UPRIGHT  •  12'-15'  •  4-8  •  SUN-PT SHADE
The Paperbark Maple has shiny, copper colored, exfoliating bark, beautiful in both winter and summer. The leaves are three lobed, matte green and divided to the center. Fall brings a spectacular blend of reds. 1 gal @ $30.00; 3 gal @ $65.00


A. j. 'Abby's Weeping'
MOUNDING  •  3-4'  •  5-8  •  SUN TO PART SHADE
This unusual japonicum has a green dissected leaf similar to, though smaller than, 'Green Cascade'. The overall form is smaller, narrower and more pendulous. Not diminished are the fabulous fall colors. # 1 @ $35.00; #2 @ $50.00


A. j. 'Aconitifolium'
UPRIGHT  •  12'-15'  •  ZONE 5–8  •  SUN-PART SHADE
Often called the 'Dancing Peacock', this tree borrows not only the name but also the form and colors of this garish bird. Heavy, feathery lobes arrange themselves into fan-like leaves that fully mock the bird's wide-spread tail. In spring and summer they don a mesmerizing deep green; in fall swirling reds, oranges, golds and purples emerge for an alluring display. It is one of our personal favorites. #1 @ $30.00; #2 @ $45.00; larger sizes available @ 60.00 to $95.00.


A. j. 'Ao juntan'
MOUNDING  •  3-5'  •  5-8  •  FULL SUN TO PART SHADE
This is an new and rare japonicum cultivar. The large leaves are typically green; they are similar to those of Green Cascade but more open and with longer lobes so the look is strong but airy. Fall color is gold and burned orange. #1 @ $38.50; #2 @ $50.00; 10" sixes @ $65.00 & $75.00


A. j. 'Attaryi'
UPRIGHT  •  8-12'  •  5-8  •  FULL SUN TO PART SHADE
Extra large green leaves that are somewhat divided are always going to make you run for your camera in the fall! They will thrill year after year! Over time this tree will get quite large but it is not a fast grower. #1 @ $38.00; 10" container size @ $65.00


A. j. 'Green Cascade'
MOUNDING  •  4'-5'  •  ZONE 5-8  •  SUN TO PART SHADE
Weeping, twice-divided leaves look lacy, luxurious and distinctly bold. The spreading, somewhat pendulous form is unusual for a japonicum but you can still rely on the characteristic large leaves and rainbow of brilliant fall color. #1 @ $30.00; #2 @ $45.00; larger sizes available @ $60.00 to 95.00


A. j. 'Meigetsu Itaya'
UPRIGHT  •  18-22'  •  ZONE 5-8  •  SUN TO PT SHADE
The enormous, slightly cupped leaf of this cultivar remains dark green for most of its life, but, in fall, the sturdy hold of the petiole (leaf stem) keeps the leaves, now bedecked in reds and yellows, attached to the tree, and thus a bright spot in the growing gloom of the fall landscape. It is one of the more vigorous cultivars and may eventually reach 45 feet in height. #1 @ 35.00, #2 @ $50.00; larger sizes available @ $65.00 - $85.00


A. j. 'Meigetsu'
UPRIGHT  •  12-18'  •  5-8  •  SUN TO PT SHADE
The large green leaves are very round and the lobes less divided than on 'Meigetsu Itaya'. The tree forms a dense round globe. Fall color is extraordinary, making the hot spectrum of the rainbow blush to keep up. # 1 @ 35.00 & #2 @ 50.00; 10" container size @ 85.00


A. j. 'O isami'
UPRIGHT  •  12-15'  •  5-8  •  SUN TO PT SHADE
Fat, round, green leaves unfurl in the spring while large magenta flowers hang amoung them in weitghty clusters. This is a vigoruos grower with an open habit at maturity. Fall's cosmetics comprise spectacular blends of red, yellow, orange and residual green. # 1 @ $35.00; # 2 @ $50.00; larger size available @ $65.00 - $85.00


A. j. 'Vitifolium'
UPRIGHT  •  20-25  •  5-8  •  SUN TO PART SHADE
Heavy branches; fat buds; large, colorful pink and mauve flower clusters; a wide spreading habit, and enormous leaves convey a sense of substance and strength. Fall colors are unbeatable! #2 @ 50.00; 10" container size @ $65.00-110.00


A. p. 'Adrian's Compact'
UPRIGHT  •  4-6'  •  5-8  •  SUN TO PART SHADE
Bright red new growth darkens to burgundy then really shows off in fall with a colorful mix of red and orange. The growth habit is slow and, guess what, compact. #1 @ 38.50.
