No problem 😉

Thanks for the tips. What are typical winter low temps? Also, I have a Sango, it grew an enormous sport. When should I remove it?

@Japanesemaples 9 месяцев назад

Hi there, the temperatures here can get down to - 3 or - 4 in the winter. I’ve seen small trees like the ones in the video frozen solid and be fine next spring. Bizzare really that damp conditions do more harm than freezing! Pruning wise my advice is to wait until when they start to leaf out next year. The cuts heal fast and get obscured by the new leaves.

Outside of columnar shape and growth rate, can you tell me a bit more about the differences between Shaina and Twombly’s?

@Japanesemaples 9 месяцев назад

Shaina grows fast initially but slows down rapidly in later years. Red sentinel will grow really big given enough time. Shaina tends to have some green leaves if they are in shade and Red sentinel holds its red colour more. Hope that helps Carl

Hi thank you very much for the tips. I have one question, do we really need to cover the pots with bubble wraps as advised by some other growers? I plant mine in a frost proof pot and Im based in Berkshire, UK.

@Japanesemaples 9 месяцев назад

Interesting question, I’ve never done that and never had a problem, I’m in the UK midlands. To be honest I’m not convinced that will make any difference as the pot will freeze eventually and way. Having roots filling the pot acts as the best insulation in my opinion!

Am i able to put my japanese maple in the garage in the winter, if so when should I be doing that?

@Japanesemaples 9 месяцев назад

Hi and thanks for the question. I live in the UK zone 8 and have never brought my trees indoors over winter and never had a problem. They need to feel the seasons and retain some moisture in their compost so I would recommend just bringing them indoors if there is extreme cold. If this is frequent where you are then leave them in the garage but water to stop them drying out. I have personally seen my small trees frozen solid and still be fine the following year. Actually it’s when they leaf out and the compost remained very wet in March that was the issue.

@grif170 9 месяцев назад

Alright thank you. Im in zone 5, so it gets pretty cold here and expecting some snow tomorrow so thats why im concerned

@Japanesemaples 9 месяцев назад

No problem and yes in that case the garage will be useful. Extreme, prolonged cold can be an issue!

@grif170 9 месяцев назад

It is still in leaf though, is it still ok?

@Japanesemaples 9 месяцев назад

@@grif170 honestly I’m not sure as I’ve never tried it. My best guess is to wait until it’s really cold

@Naztalgic 9 месяцев назад

As far as watering over winter... Just leave them alone? or water up untill first frost hits. this may be a silly question but nobody really goes in to detail on this subject.

@Japanesemaples 9 месяцев назад

That’s actually a really good point! Here in the UK I would worry until the trees drop their leaves. At this point water loss is very small and the amount it rains will be more than enough.
