All Japanese Maples are loosely placed in one of the following groups.
The groups are defined by leaf shape, that is the preponderance of
leaves of one shape on an adult plant and in the case of the Dwarf group
they are defined by the ultimate height of the plant.
AMOENUM GROUP - Leaf lobes shallowly
to moderately divided up to two-thirds of the to the leaf base.
PALMATUM GROUP - Leaf lobes moderately to deeply divided,
two-thirds to three-quarters of the way to the to the leaf base.
MATSUMURAE GROUP - Leaf lobes very deeply divided, more
than three-quarters of the way to the leaf base.
LINEARILOBUM GRoUP - Leaf lobes narrow, strap-like, divided
to the leaf base.
DISSECTUM GROUP - Leaf lobes very deeply divided and
deeply dissected into sub-lobes.
DWARF GROUP - Cultivars whose mature height does not
usually exceed 6'.
OTHER GROUP - Cultivars that cannot be placed in any
of the above groups.
The summer leaf color will be noted after the group
designation.
ACER PALMATUM & CULTIVARS
Not enough can be said about the value of the Japanese Maple
to modern landscape design. As we move towards smaller gardens and become more
refined and discriminating in our choice of plants, it is only natural to
"discover" the centuries old mainstay of the oriental garden. Beautiful in so
many ways, and in so many seasons! Acer palmatum and its cultivars are
hardy to -20°F, (USDA Zone 5). They perform fully and with ease through Zone 8.
For Zones 9 and above, you may not experience the dramatic fall foliage
coloration, but with proper cultivation and care, the trees can be grown with
great success still providing their character to your landscape.
Please note:
In areas with prolonged hot spells, some afternoon shade is advisable.

— 3', DWARF,
red.
One of the smallest forms of A. palmatum, this is a
wonderful and rare cultivar. The fingernail-sized red foliage makes the
plant especially good for bonsai, and the tree makes an unusual item in the
garden. Most maples have large foliage displays that can only be made small
with trimming. This is a cultivar that stays tight in growth habit, yet it
can be very vigorous, making an excellent specimen plant quickly. It’s a
great container plant or a focal point in a garden of miniatures!

graceful structure. The leaves divided into 7-9 deep lobes emerge orange-red
to purplish-red in the spring. The amount of red is affected by the amount
of shade the tree receives. In deep shade leaves will have green overtones.
A vigorous grower when young, it might need trimming to keep it checked if a
tighter structure is desired as it matures.

will be seen from a great distance, allowing this tree to be effectively
used to draw the eye to a desired area. Summer dresses the tree in dense
foliage of true green, sometimes lightly edged with red tints. Along with
this, the bark changes to a yellowish color.
#1 $35.95, 1-2' $49.95
50131 Acer palmatum ‘Beni komachi’
— 6-9', MATSUMURAE,

color darkens and older foliage is greenish-red. The margins remain edged in
crimson, which is delicately woven along the toothed rim, giving the
appearance of a lace work border. Beautiful! Fall colors are scarlet. Rare
in cultivation. #1 $39.95

dwarf tree, with a shrubby habit that grows wider than tall.

about it. We do know, however, that it is a fairly fast growing, shrubby
little cultivar that grows more horizontally than upright. Leaves in spring
emerge a mixture of pink, yellow and green, and take on the orange tones in
fall. We’ll be sure to watch this little guy, it sounds like it has good
promise to be a nice addition to our collections.

— 30', PALMATUM,
red.
The deepest red leaf color of the palmatum type
cultivars envelops this upright, vigorous tree, presenting a display second
to none. ‘Bloodgood’ is especially fine in holding its color into late
summer when so many of the others turn green. Then there’s ‘Bloodgood’ in
the fall--the fire-red color defies description! Wait, there’s winter, the
bark is black-red, and in the proper setting, looks absolutely elegant.

red. The distinctions between one red dissectum and
the next are difficult to verbally convey. Here goes, leaves of this variety
are finely dissected like ‘Ornatum’. Unlike many of the reds that try to out
do each other to the black end of the spectrum, ‘Brocade’ is a brighter red
and holds this color nearly through summer, at which point it deepens to a
pleasant bronze color. In fall this variety turns brilliant red crimsons and
oranges. In maturity these specimens will be wider than tall.

its name. This popular form grows into a beautiful, weeping mound, the
outstanding habit for which Japanese maples are famous. Excellent for use as
a container plant. #1 $19.95, 3-4' $74.95, 6-7' $179.95

placed. 4-5' $119.95, 5-6' $199.95
50250 Acer
palmatum ‘Elegans’ —
10-12', MATSUMURAE,
green. Syn. ‘Septemlobum Elegans.’ Thick
branches support seven lobed leaves which emerge olive with brown margins
and mature to a darker green. The 7 lobes of the leaves are separated
entirely to the center, widely spaced, and distinctly serrated. Fall color
is a brilliant orange tinted with red. 3-4' $49.95
50379 Acer
palmatum ‘Elmwoodie’ —
8-10', MATSUMURAE,
green. This is a new upright
growing maple that has lime-green leaves in spring turning to moss green in
summer and then to yellow and orange in the fall. #1 $39.95, 4-5' $69.95
50323 Acer
palmatum ‘Emerald Lace’ — 5-10', DISSECTUM,
green. A vigorous
grower, this finely cut, brightly green lace leaf amazingly turns lovely
shades of red in the fall. (The green leaf varieties will usually turn
yellow-orange.) A beautiful selection in all seasons. #1 $29.95, 1-2' $39.95
50293 Acer
palmatum ‘Emperor I’ — 24', PALMATUM,
red. An exceptional
cultivar that is a must for those needing a tough Japanese Maple. Very
similar to the old favorite, ‘Bloodgood,’ except that it leafs out in the
spring about two weeks later, making it an excellent tree in areas with a
late frost. The very dark red leaf lasts throughout the season; in fall the
leaves turn a fiery crimson. 1-2' $24.95, 3-4' $55.95, 4-5' $99.95, 5-6'
$119.95, 6-7' $149.95
50998 Acer palmatum ‘Ever Autumn’ —
6-12', PALMATUM,
green. This is another cultivar that was a chance seedling that
caught the discerning eye of Don Heims of Terra Nova Nursery. It is upright
growing with rich green leaves during the growing season and turning glorious
yellows, oranges, and red in fall. 3-4' $49.95
Acer palmatum
‘Everred’ — See ‘Dissectum Nigrum.’
50302 Acer palmatum ‘Fascination’
— 16', MATSUMURAE,
green. Upright
and rounded growth habit, and the broadest of dark green leaves, almost like
A. japonicum ‘Aconitifolium.’ These very green, seven-lobed leaves
are edged with large narrow teeth. The bark too has something to offer:
green with some white striations. Fall color is orange. 2-3' $49.95
50036 Acer palmatum ‘Filigree’
— 5-10', DISSECTUM,
green. This is an outstanding dissected maple. Light,
yellow-green leaves of extremely delicate texture are flecked with minute
speckles of cream and pale gold. Like most dissectums, the growth is
pendulous. Densely branched and easy to grow. 1-2' $39.95,
2-3' $44.95
50948 Acer palmatum ‘Fireball’
— 6', DWARF,
red. This cultivar has small, five-lobed leaves that are deeply
divided. It came from a witches’-broom found by David Verkade of Pompton
Lakes, New Jersey. A nice plant for any collection. #1 $39.95, 1-2' $59.95,
4-5' $79.95
50011 Acer palmatum ‘Fireglow’
— 15', PALMATUM,
red. The leaves on this cultivar are very much like the
name. They are an intense wine-red that holds up well in summer. This is an
attractive, slow growing tree that has an upright growth habit. 1-2' $35.95,
3-4' $89.95
50368 Acer palmatum
‘Fjellheim’ — 3-5', PALMATUM,
green. This spectacular dwarf keeps the bright red stems and leaf
characteristics of its parent, ‘Sango Kaku,’ but it forms a much more compact
and upright plant. A good choice where a mass of coral stems will brighten the
winter scene. Will do well in a container.
#1 $39.95, 2-3' $114.95
