Acer palmatum is a species with rich variety of deciduous trees or shrubs with elegant habits, palmate, lacy, hand-like leaves, and beautiful colourful foliage, especially in autumn. The colours vary from rich shades of yellow and golden-yellow, then red, purple, and bronze, to bright and dark green. Most Japanese maples belong to Acer palmatum species. It’s a slow-grower with an upright, bushy, compact habit, rounded to broad-rounded with layered branching structure. Acer palmatum is very adaptable and easy to grow. It prefers moist, well-drained, slightly acidic soils, but it can grow in almost any kind of soil. Leaf colour is best in partial shade, but the plant tolerates full sun very well. It needs to be protected from harsh winds. Lack of soil moisture and excessive exposure can cause leaf scorch. Acer palmatum is highly decorative and ornamental. Perfect as specimen plant, great for small, urban, cottage or rock gardens. Very suitable for growing in containers and pots.

About Us

During this time, we have developed a large stock of trees, mature evergreen shrubs, conifers, Japanese maples, cedars and olives. What sets us apart from a generic garden center is solid unwavering focus on trees and some bigger shrubs. You will find thousands of trees, hundreds of varieties and lots of experts who are working on the nursery and more than willing to help you to choose a plant for you.

What you will not find is hot tubs, garden furniture and plastic garden gnomes. In a nutshell, trees is what we know and trees is what we do, and only trees (and some shrubs to go with the trees).
