Watch as I give a Spring 2023 update on the Japanese Maple trees that I have grown from cuttings, seeds and by grafting.
NOTE: Only propagate NON-PATENTED varieties.
Hi Jonny - I just stumbled upon your channel... love it! And yes, congrats on your license as well. Love to hear more about your background and what took you in this direction. My father-in-law used to propagate from seeds and literally had 200-300 gallon pots with seedlings and grafts too in hiss backyard - and for fun -... Roy was a good man... I hope for you success and keep educating us! Looking forward to knowing more and seeing more vides! Peace... Matt
Thank you!
I started some heel cuttings this year so hope that gives me some roots and able to grow them.
Thanks for following up ,
Hey Congratulations!
Thank you!
Great update Jonny, learning heaps from you over here in Australia
got a bunch of beni chidori seedlings from under a friends giant tree this spring. the parent tree is the biggest japanese maple ive ever seen growing in my area. its got to be 5 foot around at the trunk base. im going back in fall for some hard wood cuttings lol thanks jonny. new sub and a thumbs up for you
19:00 minute... I like that tree 😍
Love the info! me and my husband is looking into starting a small nursery as well here in pa. Just starting out with some Sendlings and cuttings.wish you the best! Congratulations and stay positive!!
I say go for it!
Congratulations on getting your nursery license and the video updates on your Maple/Acer was great information. Also the grafting of the trees look awesome they came out so nice great job.
Thank you! I am really enjoying this.
Been watching your video ,now I’m starting starting collecting Japanese maples tree
I’m living in southern Cali . Los Ángeles area , is this good for Japanese maple tree ? 
Good luck with the new business!
Hi Jonny, great to see these updates and to hear you're starting your own nursery! Will you be growing and selling japanese maples exclusively or other plants/trees as well? Im actually working towards doing the same over here in the Netherlands! Im also experimenting with all sorts of techniques to see what works.
I am planning to specialize in Japanese Maples, but still grow a number of other ornamental trees/shrubs.
Why not Air Layer the graft host top that you cut off? Seems would allow double use to me. Growing seeds where i am is hard due to dry heat (and hard for me to stay on top of the watering).
Not getting hard freeze here, how do you suggest I stratify seeds? Please explain soil you use for your larger container grown trees 10-20" and larger. Great content thanks.
Excellent update on your Maples/Acers :) I got one Acer cutting from early last year to grow and return this spring. It appears in my April update about 40 seconds in. Do you know which variety my Acer is?
Thanks for a great detailed bidet. May I ask your location or state. So I can compare times. I'm western Oregon.
Johnny what state are you in? Love love love your videos!
Hi Jonny, Thanks for all the work you do to make your videos and help all of us along the way towards growing Japanese Maples. Just wanted to report that I have 40 seedlings growing in a protected tote (Used hardware cloth over tote, to let in air, but keep out birds, etc). Unlike you, I took the seedlings from the ground prior to having true leaves. I did this because some of the seedlings I marked for potting simply weren't there a few days later, and I didn't want to lose more. Anyway, they are all doing well in a corner spot with little wind, and about half have their full true leaves. Most of the rest are showing sprouts of their true leaves. I'm great at this part of the process (since nature does most of the work), but I have still never, EVER successfully kept a Japanese Maple alive until spring. They always look healthy and beautiful until about October, but eventually the Buffalo winter kills them (Zone 6B). I've been at this for four years, so I'm thinking of paying a local nursery (a very handsome sum, btw) to over winter those JM's from this year that are still healthy in October. I also wanted to mention that I found about half of my seedlings in the grass around my mature Japanese Maple, so if people can't find the number of seedlings they want in the mulch under the tree, check through the grass. The more I looked, the more I found. I left quite a few seedlings growing in the ground as a comparator to those that I transferred into my tote. Sorry so long-winded!
Good tips and hopefully you can get the seedlings through the winter this year. I do agree that the grass can be a goof place to look as well, they are just harder to dig up.
I’m trying airlayering one of my bloodgoods and am excited to see the results in a month or so! Have you tried airlayering?
Love your videos.Could you do a video on pests/aphids.I am in the uk and one of my beautiful acers has an aphid problem.I have sprayed with a dishwasher solution.Any help/advice would be greatly appreciated.❤
Great suggestion - thanks!
It's me again lol. I've searched You Tube for hours trying to find the answer to this ? NOWHERE to be found. How young can you start training a Japanese Maple for Bonsai? I just dug up a large seedling which is 21 inches tall. I don't know what age it is because I just started reading about JM 2 weeks ago. So I hope somebody can answer my ? Thanks
Whatd you do with that big chunk you cut off @ 12:05 ?
Какой грунт вы используете для ваших клёнов?Спасибо.
👋 Johny! Just curious as to what zone you're in. I'm in 6b and hoping to give propagation a shot this year.
I am in a Zone 8
Do you have a website so I could by a couple of trees from you? I really liked your Mikazuki tree.
I only sell locally, not online yet.
You got any shirasawanum or japonicum? :)
I have been focusing on palmatum which is my favorite.
Where are you located? We are in Central New York and would love to buy from you.
Kevin
I am in zone 3 and need to know how to care for 1 yr old seedling please.
In zone 3, you will have to bring the trees inside during the winter as they are only hardy down to Zone 5.
From which country do you broadcast? I am from Spain
I am saying this because I think that if I give you an address of a web page that also speaks English, you would learn a lot and avoid wasting time. In any case, I have been working with the maples for 40 years, I am going to give you some little advice (with good will for supposed )
trying to make maple cuttings is very difficult for most species, (precisely for this reason they are grafted) so that the rootstock is tough against diseases and grow vigorous. although for whatever reason a specimen of a difficult variety would root you, because that tree would always be called sick (it would not grow well, it would have root problems etc etc. I repeat, that is why most maples are grafted
what you have to plant is many rootstocks, which are common palmatun maples, which is where you will graft the species you want to have, the trees you have you can leave as mother trees and for each bud you cut from the mother tree, you could have a tree of that species, keep in mind that there are about 1500 varieties.
Sorry for being so extensive but it makes me waste your time for something that many people have already gone through, if you are interested in the website, I will tell you that it is a maple shopping page, but they have videos dedicated to each variety of maple, very explanatory And as I told you before, they speak English too, can you tell me, okay?
greetings
Hi Jonny, I'm brand new to Japanese Maples and not to knowledgeable to gardening. I just picked up some seeds that fell from some J. M. trees 15 minutes ago. Should I put them in a ziplock bag and put in the drawer or should I stick them in the fridge? Also I noticed little small shoots ( 6 inches long) coming off the trunk. Can I pull them off the tree and try to root them . Thanks for your channel and I subscribed. Also how can I contact you to purchase some trees? I'm not sure where you are but I'm in the Atlanta , Ga. area.
Seeds on Japanese Maples drop in the fall, so those seeds should have already gone through a natural winter stratification process, so you could put them in soil now and keep them most and hope for the best. I wouldn't try to root cuttings until until at the earliest June. I only sell plants locally right now.
@@JonnyMaple thanks for the help.
Hi Jony I am looking for seeds where I will get it please
Hello Jonny I wanted to know if you sell a gallon Japanese Maple trees or seedling
Only locally, not online.
Can i grow a japanese maple if im in zone 3b?
Not outside in the winter. They are hardy in general down to a zone 5... but that in in the ground. In pots, anything less than a zone 7 needs additional protection so the roots are not damaged by the cold.
Wher you get the seeds
From trees in my yard. Look around to see if a neighbor has these trees and ask them for seeds in the fall.
Hi how can I buy from you?
I mostly sell in person locally, but may have a drop or two for my RUclips audience later on this year. In the longer term future, I plan to do a lot of shipping.
@@JonnyMaple thanks! Where are you out of? I’m in the Boston area
