ReplyDeleteThe color is glorious, indeed! Thank you Janet for all your tree posts! I learn a lot from them. Thanks for the link to a tree site which you included in your comment!
ReplyDeleteOh, delicious! Is it okay if i have Japanese Maple envy? Because those are so lovely, but we're just a little too harsh in the winter here for me to grown anything much other than 'Bloodgood'.
ReplyDeleteyou're not calling that small are you?? I keep wanting to buy a JM, but the tiny ones - like 2 feet tall - are $60-100!!
ReplyDeleteMaybe Santa will bring me one.
I LOVE yours!! Stunning!
I just love how the orange leaves contrast with the beautiful green trunk. Such beautiful trees. Unfortunately, they do not grow in the Arizona desert, so I will enjoy looking at yours.
ReplyDeleteOh, how brilliant are those fall leaves on your beautiful trees. They just pop in the landscape Janet.
ReplyDeleteJanet,
ReplyDeleteSo colorful! We have a red one that never looks as good as yours.
Hi, I just discovered your blog - it is beautiful. I love Japanese maples! I lost count as to how many I have. Some have produced seedlings, and I have potted these up, waiting for future homes, either in my own yard or the yards of friends. Some of the most beautiful ones I have were unnamed seedlings. I am looking forward to exploring your blog, now that I have found it.
ReplyDeleteWow, those colors are wonderful! Thanks for sharing!

visit to my blog friend in iyosh12.blogspot.com
I just love the colors. Yours has such a nice shape to it. They are definitely a favorite tree of mine, they have so much to offer year round.
ReplyDeleteThat first picture makes it look electric.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful colors ... lovely light. Great to see as ours have fallen and now buried under snow! Carol
ReplyDeleteHello everyone-
ReplyDeleteCharlie, you are a flirt!
Hi Tatyana, thank you so much. You know it was Helen, not me who linked to that huge maple.
Hi Jodi, you may indeed have Japanese maple envy. I do and it is my tree! Bloodgood is a nice to have as well.
Hi Ginger, well I guess small is relative. It is about an eight year old tree. Good luck with Santa!
Hi Noelle, it is a nice contrast. I am sorry they don't grow in Arizona....will take lots of pictures for you.
Hi Lona, this one certainly popped!
Hi Randy, This has been a great year for these two maples. Great color.
Hi Deb, so glad you came by to visit. Your friends will be very glad to have a pass a long Japanese maple. Hope you come back soon.
Hi A Pinch of Cheer, thanks for stopping by.
Hi reinhard, thanks,
Hi Catherine, you are right it is a great tree for year round interest.
Hi Les, I thought it was pretty stunning first thing in the morning....or maybe it was that the sun was shining.
Hi Carol, thanks so much. I am glad you came by to visit. We are to get some snow this Sunday...so it will be interesting to see what things look like then.
Your trees are looking good. One plce I take care of has a collection of Japanese Maples (about 20 different ones) and they are pretty much a non stop show from the time the new growth comes out to the end of the season. The Coral Bark types add some nice winter interest too.
ReplyDeleteThese are gorgeous, Janet! I've been coveting Japanese maples ever since I first saw one, but I'm a little afraid--and too cheap--to try one yet. These are definitely special passalongs!
ReplyDeleteI am going to HAVE to find a spot to add one of these to my garden Janet. Yours are simply gorgeous. It would make me so happy to look outside and see color like this!
ReplyDeleteI've heard that the Japanese maples you get as seedlings rather than nursery propagated are faster growing, stronger, hardier varieties, and in my experience that has turned out to be true. Beautiful trees you have there.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful color on those trees!
ReplyDeleteI thought Morning Light was the name of the variety at first. :) It is a beautiful color.
ReplyDeleteI love Japanese Maples & especially like yours in the morning light. The color is full of fire!
ReplyDeleteThose maples are just lovely.
ReplyDeleteHi Chris, thanks, they really put on a show this year. I can't imagine how wonderful the place you take care of is with so many Japanese Maples. I have a Coral Bark Maple on the list with my landscape guy in SC...love it!
ReplyDeleteHi Rose, it is easy to see why so many covet these maples. Both of mine are passalongs. I am cheap too!
Hi Kathleen, I agree, find a spot for a J. maple!!
Hi Megan, I am not sure about the speediness of growth from seed vs propagated...interesting though.
Hi Phillip, thanks!
Hi Donna, I like the name, we can go with that!
Hi Anartistsgarden, it was like it was on fire, absolutely incredible.
Hi Victoria, thanks!
