Care
Acers are a slow growers with a narrow upright growing direction that keeps the plants compact. This allows you to grow these trees in a pot or in a smaller garden. Japanese Maples can best be planted from March to the beginning of November. In this period the soil is warmer and the plants can easily root. Japanese maples are strong plants but in a windy location the leaves can easily get damaged. Therefore, put the Acers in a sheltered place. The plants prefer a spot in the semi-shade, preferably with not too much direct sunlight. Too much direct sunlight can cause the roots and leaves to dry out, which can lead to leaf damage. Japanese Maples are not evergreen, which means they lose its leaves during the winter. However, these plants are very hardy and will sprout again in March with beautiful new leaves.
