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.
Mikawa Yatsubusa is one of my favorites. It's a Japanese maple an architect would have constructed. The basic spring color is a fresh spring green with the new growth appearing as a very light green. The leaves overlap in shingle-like fashion, producing a dense, tidy and neat tree.
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.
