Sekimori 5/20/06
Sekimori is a matte green dissectum with fabulous yellow fall color. It has a cascading growth habit where the branches grow out and down, and it's wider than it is high. It's an elegant tree and needs considerable space to grow unless pruned to the size you want.
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.
