Okagami 4/13/07
Okagami is an elegant, refined and beautiful cultivar. It has a graceful form which is just a bit formal, and it's best if placed in a location where backlighting can show it off well.
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.
