Hi Sam, I have enjoyed part II of yer marvels very much.There are actually quite a bunch of cultivars that I haven't heard of.It seems like you have a lot of space there at your nursery. A question....Viridis looks a lot like the ordinary but still beautifull maple "disectum".Is this the same form or is this name aplyable to all cultivars that look simular like the cultivar " Disectum"The only difference I can see is that the autumn colors are more orange than yellow maybe that is the difference between these 2. Ahum..onwards to part III and IV? :D Patrick
My understanding is that the name 'Viridis' is being more and more loosely applied to any green dissectum. I also note that recently dissectum is being quoted with a capital 'D' as 'Dissectum' as though it was a standard cultivar If I were to keep up to date my yellow plant (autumn colour) would probably be that known as Dissectum and the other that known as Viridis I am open to correction by those here who are more knowledgeable Thanks for your kind comments I have a few others where I didn't consider the photographs to merit inclusion. If I get better pictures next year who knows?????
I am pleased to say that there have been very many views of my maples following their inclusion on my website The problem for me is that (and I didn't know this before) so many people downloading the videos is costing me a small fortune It appears that I have to pay heavily for such usage It looks as though I am going to have to suspend their availability after another few weeks, otherwise my winter holiday may have to take a back seat, and the wife might not take too kindly to that happening Please therefore enjoy these videos whilst they remain available, and continued thanks for all of your kind comments Sam
Sam - we can likely figure out a way to host them on the UBC site to keep them available - we (fortunately) don't pay for bandwidth. I might be able to set it up so you can include them as an attachment on your post.
That would be fabulous Daniel Maybe you can e mail me with any details, and I can upload the videos OR maybe you can 'pick them up' from my site? Regards
See this thread - you can edit your original posts to remove the direct link, and instead upload the files as attachments.
Ok I have done that Daniel and it seems grand Thanks for your help This will save me and my marriage LOL Would you consider making the entry 'sticky' so that it doesnt disappear?
Making this thread sticky? Tough to do - there are quite a few sticky threads already. If some enterprising person wanted to make "Myname's Best of the Maple Forums" or a "Maple Forums FAQ" that included a number of links to various threads (including your videos), I could substitute that one thread as a sticky for a number of other sticky threads, though.
