Acer palmatum, commonly known as the Japanese maple, is a cherished ornamental tree known for its graceful form and striking seasonal colors. This versatile species features delicate, finely-lobed leaves that display vibrant colors from spring through fall. In spring, new foliage often emerges in shades of light green or red, deepening over summer before transforming into brilliant hues of orange, red, and yellow in autumn. Typically reaching heights of 10-25 feet, Acer palmatum has an elegant, spreading structure that suits small gardens, shaded areas, and container planting. Thriving in well-drained soil with partial shade, it is both low-maintenance and hardy. With its stunning colors and delicate shape, Acer palmatum adds year-round interest, making it a popular choice in landscaping worldwide.

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).
