      Online source for Japanese maples?

      Does anyone know where I may be able to find someone who has and can ship a small acer palmatum (beni kosode)? Google seems to have let me down unless I have it shipped from the UK.


      Thanks
      Mike

      Thanks, yeah that place is amazing! thats actually where I saw one. They only had one, its a 1 gallon size in the prop house but it's not for sale. They said they can't get any more but they may try to graft some new plants from it as there's alot of intrest in it. Only issue is its only hardy to zone 7 so I'll have to overwinter it inside.

      This place is a gold mine. His collection of minature and rare evergreen trees is unbelievable. Huge number of less common options for around the pond. His collection of japanese maples is equally large with many fantastic varieties. These guys love their trees and will never sell you anything that won't do well if you describe your conditions accurately.

      I've bought a few Jap Maples from them and they we shaped very well on purchase and have done excellent for me.
