Maples

Our Maples are grown to express the essence of the tree. With timely pruning, staking and fertilization to promote healthy roots and slow consistent growth the trees mature into perfect individual specimen.

We are currently offering three different methods of propagation:

Maples propagated by grafting are generally considered the best for use in the landscape as they develop a stronger root system more quickly and are larger at a younger age.

 

Rooted cuttings are highly sought for bonsai and container gardening where the presence of a graft line may be undesirable.

Seedlings are either of species or from cultivars. Although a cultivar will express the specific characteristics of the parent plant by either grafting or rooted cutting, a seedling from a cultivar is always a surprise, a unique individual. This the method by which most new cultivars are discovered.
