A. p. d. 'Waterfall'
MOUNDING  •  7' - 10'  •  ZONE 5 – 8  •  SUN – PART SHADE

MOUNDING  •  6'-9'  •  ZONE 5-8  •  FULL SUN TO PART SHADE

A. palmatum
UPRIGHT  •  15-20'  •  5-8  •  SUN - PART SHADE

A. pseudosieboldianum
UPRIGHT  •  15-18'  •  3-7  •  SUN-PT SHADE

A. pseudosieboldianum ssp. takesimense
UPRIGHT  •  15-20'  •  5-7  •  SUN-PT SHADE
This Korean native has shiny, round green leaves and a somewhat narrow form. It is a beautiful and desirable tree but is believed to be less hardy than A. pseudosieboldianum. Fall colors begin with golds and oranges but eventually turns red. 10" container size only @ &75.00 & $85.00


A. s. d. 'Kawai'

A. saccharinum 'Born's Graciosa'
UPRIGHT  •  16-20'  •  5-7  •  SUN TO PART SHADE
For the most part we do not grow Silver Maples here. But this little beauty is the exception. It has bright green leaves that very deeply divided and do not lie flat so that the tree looks all fluffy, almost like green cotton candy. Fall color is yellow. It is a good tree to put in a damp area. 10" containers only @ $ 65.00


A. shir. 'Autumn Moon'
UPRIGHT  •  6'-8'  •  ZONE 5-8  •  SUN TO PT. SHADE
Autumn moon evokes not just the radiant orange and honey colors but also the rotund and bountiful orb of a harvest moon.

A. shir. 'Johin'
UPRIGHT  •  5-6'  •  6-8  •  SUN TO PART SHADE
