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.
Midori no Teboku goes crazy in the fall and throws every color in its arsenal at you. It's a riot of color with one red leaf while others are purple or gold or bronze or green, or all of the above. The total effect is charming and just a little over the top. This is in contrast to its summer demeanor, where it appears to be rather formal in green.
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.
