- The beginning of another adventure in the maple garden. After every setback new ideas and solutions appear, and I enjoy this interesting prosess. Now I really see that I am about to realize my dream of making a Japanese maple stroll garden in miniature.
Wow you live in a paradise! What an incredible view! Beautiful maple!
Yes, I'm indeed blessed
Hello Merete! I love the show of maples that you have presented and in the description of each of them you have detailed as best as possible, very good! The colors in Katsura are magnificent but I have noticed that you have really fallen in love with the Shirasawanum Aureum and the truth is that there is nothing bad to say about their family, they are all splendid. It took me 2 years to have a good Aureum and I finally got it last year, now it is gorgeous too. I am glad that you have finally exhibited your collection this spring.
Hello to you to, I am happy to finally have some good maple news to share.😀 By the way, when I was planting the maples yesterday, I was removing all the soil above the roots, as I have learned that I should, because many of them are plantet to deep.. I discovered that Aurem had a quite thick strong branch of the root growing tightly around the trunk just above where the root starts. If I haven't taken the soil away, I wouldn't have notices. I had to use force to loosen it from the the trunk, and also be firm in order to avoid it from snapping back to its strangular hold on the trunk. I think this could have killed the tree if undiscovered . For me this is an important reminder to also check what's beneath the surface. Now I think that Aurem have every possibility to thrive. Oh yes, I really would like more trees from the Shirasawanum family, they are all gorgeous. i would always find space for any of them. ❤
They are really looking good and sorry to hear you lost your potted ones. I hope you try again
Nice that you like my maples. 🙂As long as I can find place in the ground for new ones I will prefer that. But maybe some day I will try keeping some in pots outdoor in the winter again.
