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.
Red Willow has purple matte-colored leaves, deeply lobed, with bright red veins and petioles. The lobes are serrated and droop slightly, making an overall umbrella shape for the tree. This is a most attractive and neat-looking maple.
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.
