I’m going to assume that many of you probably picked out a few favorite Japanese maples from the video and are now wondering whether they would be a good fit for your landscape, yeah?! 😄
So, I figured I’d make it easy for you — here’s a list of all the varieties I showcased, along with their maximum heights and widths (in feet):
Bloodgood: 15 – 20’ tall, 15’ wide
Crimson Queen: 8 – 10’ tall, 10’ wide
Autumn Full Moon: 8 – 12’ tall, 8’ wide
Shaina: 6 – 8’ tall, 8’ wide
Waterfall: 8 – 10’ tall, 10’ wide
Fireglow: 10 – 12’ tall, 10’ wide
Red Dragon: 5 – 8’ tall, 10’ wide
Emperor I: 10 – 15’ tall, 15’ wide
Orangeola: 6 – 8’ tall, 6’ wide
Tobiosho: 15 – 20’ tall, 15’ wide
Tamukeyama: 6 – 8’ tall, 10’ wide
Green Laceleaf: 8 – 10’ tall, 10’ wide
Seiryu: 10 – 15’ tall, 8’ wide
☀️🌤️🌥️Don’t forget that in Texas, Japanese maples should never be planted in full sun! They will burn up. They prefer morning sun only and afternoon shade.
⭐️ Also, remember that these trees are famously slow growers, so I always take my dad’s advice — buy the size you want to enjoy… it’s likely to stay (roughly) that size for a while!
Happy gardening and I hope this helps!!
