This listing is for 5 x Japanese Maple tree seeds (acer palmatum) Ideal for bonsai. As the name suggests these trees are native to Japan, smaller populations also exist in North Korea, South Korea, China, eastern Mongolia, & southeast Russia. They are an adaptable species capable of growing in a wide range of soils & exposures. They are generally easy to cultivate & succeed in most soils, preferring a good moist well-drained soil on the acid side & partial shade. They also grow well in heavy clay soils but not in saturated soggy ones. The natural species grows faster & larger than the selected garden cultivars. They need more room than you would expect & can grow up to 20m (60ft). They respond well to pruning & can readily cope with having their height controlled in this way. Requires some shelter in the cooler areas & benefit greatly from protection from cold drying winds. Plants are hardy to about -25oc but spring growth is tender & can be vulnerable to damage by late frosts. Germination, sowing & after care instructions go out with every order.
