Acer palmatum 'Alpenweiss'

11th April 2021 and the continuing photo diary of my Alpenweis. I do like the small leaves on this one and am looking forward to it becoming a more established tree in my collection.

 

8th May 2021 and my Alpenweiss is opening up those lovely tiny variegated leaves at last. I think it waited for all the frosts to go and I don't blame it one bit.

 

Here is 'Alpenweiss' on 4/13/22

 

Lovely D, mine didn't make it through the Winter sadly, so I will enjoy yours from afar.

 

I hate to hear that D. I'll try to keep it update for you.

 

It happens D. Had the same problem with Higasayama. Sometimes you just have to accept the fact that a particular maple just won't do well in your location.

 

I clearly understand D. Found 2 so far that didn't make it.

 

Ahh thats interesting D. I wonder if it is a weak cultivar.

 

I worded that wrong D. I've found two other maples cultivars that didn't make it over the winter.

 

Understood D..

 

Update of 'Alpenweiss'. Very nice little tree for small places, shade, and grows well in a pot.
