Abby's Weeping 4/25/06
Abby's Weeping is a Japonicum that takes lots of time in the spring to leaf out. It's best known for its gorgeous fall color.
Abby's Weeping is a japonicum with huge leaves, and it's the perfect japonicum for spring. Green all the way, stately, and quite perfect. Abby's Weeping waits for the autumn to show its colors, and they are awesome in the red/orange range and hold color until the leaves drop.
After removing a thicket from a canyon behind our home in 2003, we started learning about Japanese maples, became obsessed by them, and now have about 400 different varieties of Japanese maples. Each year we find new and wonderful varieties, meet other maple collectors and growers, and our garden has become a sensation.
