Hi, I have been growing this Japanese maple from a mature tree that died maybe 5 years ago now from a nasty winter. I always believed this is a Japanese maple but there is nothing like it at any of the nurseries in Burlington, Ontario where I reside. Can anyone tell me the proper name of it please? Jude
Oh wow, Ron, what took you so long? LOL! Fastest answer I have ever had and thanks so much, that is what it is for sure! Now I have never grown this particular tree in any of my gardens and it just turned up beneath the dying Japanese maple so I just figured it must be a baby and I nursed it along thinking I had a clone of my dead tree. But I love this tree just as much and more so now I know what I have growing. Obviously it was a transplant compliments of some bird or the wind! It is getting quite tall but is not shaped like a tree but a very large shrub. I will just leave it alone and let it do its own thing. Again, many thanks! Jude
Yes, Ron, they are very mildly scented and quite lovely! Gotta wonder where it came from though although my bachelor's buttons were compliments of some bird also! Again many thanks!
