Hi emery, According to MrMaple, the cultivar is named after Elwood Hubb of Riverton, NJ, which would make "Hupp's" the typo. Guess it depends on...

Looks similar to my Shirazz... just smaller and less vigorous. :)
Two sides of Shirazz this morning: 1) the sun-facing side, still looking as pink as it did in April, and 2) the sheltered side, showing a...
This is what single handedly prevents me from growing potted maples on my patio. Everything is in ground, with a small number of plastic potted...
Very nice sango, and I'm surprised that 20+ years later, it's still holding the coral color that well. My experience is that over time, they all...
The deed is done. Went through many of the pruning videos above beforehand. Very informative although didn't really answer the June vs October...

Beautiful photo Alain, although seeing all that Wisteria gives me PTSD, as I'm reminded of our old Wisteria that literally punched through a...
Few more variegated beauties putting on shows this week: Shirazz...............................Manyo no Sato [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
Quick follow-up: if I wanted to pot the tree and put it in a protected place for the time being, would that be okay at this early stage of...
