My collection of Japanese maples. Click on the photo to enlarge. If you want to view a specific cultivar, enter its name in the search feature in the upper left corner.
This photo shows Ariadne leafing out in late April. In my garden, it's a late plant and takes its time to produce leaves. While the spring color is interesting, it's not overly spectacular. But in the autumn, it really lets loose with colorful reddish displays that provide some real drama to the garden.
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.
