- Presented by Jim & Lynn Swanson, Volunteers, with introduction by Blake Wentley, Education Assistant, JC Raulston Arboretum on October 4, 2024.
It is said that no matter where you stand in the JC Raulston Arboretum, you can see a Japanese maple. Representing our garden perfectly with their toughness and huge diversity of superior garden-worthy cultivars, Acer palmatum has a special place in the hearts of everyone with a personal connection to our garden. Jim and Lynn Swanson are the volunteers responsible for pruning and maintaining the maple collection here at the JCRA, and they also happen to be the Southeast Regional Coordinators for The Maple Society of North America, giving them perhaps the most significant connection to all the maples we have here. Join us for this Plant-lover's Tour, as Jim and Lynn take you around the garden to show off some of their favorite Japanese maples and give you some tips for bringing out the best in these beautiful trees!

I enjoyed all the information provided about Japanese Maples. I have two old weeping ones in my garden and never pruned them. I will try a bit to make them better. How many trees are in your private collection. Thank you Lynn and Jim. I enjoyed you bouncing off each other and your enthusiasim.
Awesome!!!
Pretty sure JD vertrees found mikawa yatsabusa ... Also can i take seed from the arboretum?
We have a seed exchange for members. Become a member of the arboretum and you can request seeds and have them mailed to you!
Just as a clarification,,,japonica & shirasawanum have seed that go up and palmatum point seed down....
