Hi Carl, the hardest part for me is to distinguish between overwatering and underwatering. For example some of my maples show the same "scorch" on the leaves, uniformely all around the plant, but how can I be sure that the problem is overwatering? I also have a meter, and the top 10cm of the compost is totally dry, but then deeper it is almost saturated. I thought of just sprinkling a bit the top soil to try and have the moisture as uniform as possible, and it seems to be keeping the trees stable, definitely in winter I will repot them to a better, more airy soil with a wiser pot choice to match the root ball size. Till then, any recommendations? Thanks, Kostas

Hello from Long Island New York United States 👋 I have my first maple. It was on sale due to sun scorch. I hope it will be ok.

Beni maiko behaves the same way, got it new this year and it was completely green. Now in full sun the leaves get their nice pink red colour❤

Do you know of any green acer that tolerates sun and stays green in the sun?

I need a primer for giving my young coral bark structure. It wants to be shrubby and was growing in a dense twist in one direction. I dont think it will ever send any branches to the other side without physical force. Do you have any advice for correcting the growthh on this variety? 😎

My emperor isn't doing very good it was 110 degrees for every for an entire week with no rain

I have tended to over-pot my new maples, and they really have been soggy and heavy. I've decided to remedy this not by down-potting, but by re-potting into a really well-draining soil: 3 parts pine bark, 1 part perlite, 1 part peat moss. Even when freshly watered they are now so much lighter and the water drains through quite readily. I'm optimistic I'll see some good summer rebound on those that have been sluggish to this point.

What happened after you defoliated the tree? Did the leaves grow back?

I really like cascade ruby Can you release a clear video of him?

How many japanese maples do you have in your collection now?? I'm looking for 2 of them....acer palmatums Mila and Katja so if you come across either or both can you let me know please? Love your channel by the way, Carl!!!!

I’m Agree my shaina love sun and is purple pink very beautiful in full sun 🎉

I have most of mine in a minimum of half a day of unfiltered sun... some even longer. I water them real well though, and they do generally very well. If I get a stretch of 90+ degree days, I might get some leaves burning at the tips, but only on the top branches. The lower branches remain lush. I especially like how my red plants will get a lot of lush green leaves towards the base of the tree/bush. It is simply amazing how nature tries to find a way to grow!! Thanks for sharing.

Is cactus soil good for maples?

Don't get started... you'll become a Japanese maple addict like me! 😊

Lots of great tips Carl! Looks like you got some unusual new species there. I have just got a 'Black Lace' from the nursery which I've not seen before. It says its part shade, so I'm going to follow your advice and try to acclimatize it

Very useful video thanks Carl keep up the good work mate thanks

Do you find that your terra cotta pots get hotter than standard nursery pots? And would you recommend clay over plastic to allow complete dry-out?

So glad I found this channel, it’s re sparked my love for the Japanese Acer! I did see your video about ‘taylor’ being finicky to do well, mine was doing quite well as a younger tree until one day of decent sun here in the south west gave it leaf burn right away haha! Moved into a spot that gets maybe an hour or two of sun in the morning and then full shade and it’s loving it!

Going thru heatwaves over here. Got all mine in shade plus 2 layers bug netting and seems be doing great during my busy work schedule and during the mid 90"s in the state of Kentucky usa. Water once a day..in the evening everyday. If it's going to be this hot this summer I may end up placing a drip Tray underneath all my maples. Most are expensive bonsai I've created over past 10yrs. Have them all together.

Thank you,I find your Channel very informative and so helpful.you provide the perfect tip’s regarding the upkeep of these wonderful plants.

Thank you. I’m positive now this is my problem. And I’ve been stressing the last few months and watering far too much.

What do you think about the blue jacaranda

I have adhd, I am physical unable to wait 😅 need to know now!😂

Very informative, I've leaned a lot thanks

For those of us in Zone 10 and up (Coastal S. California, Florida, Coastal Australia, etc.), Japanese maples will burn even under 40% shade cloth. The lack of humidity and higher temperatures makes them next to impossible to grow well. Most of us simply accept that they will burn.

Looking forward to the next video. Your subject matter is so relevant to the season and its problems and beauty.

Thanks Carl , you really are helping me learn fast how to get more and the best from the maples. You have a brilliant garden full.

Useful video, thanks. One or two of mine are in the wrong place but I have very little shade in my garden. Gorgeous water feature too 😍

What is the name of the beautiful hosta that shows up on 6:50?

Great explanation! I have 4 years of experience with maples and always trying to explain that the sun plays an important role for the best color, especially in the spring season. Variegated maples are better suited to semi-shade to enhance their veins and characteristics of their species. The summer will burn some leaves but you have to be happy that at least it has been enjoyed from budding until mid-summer, those who want to have maples should know.

Wow your collection is awesome ❤

I never know how much and how often I should water them ;/ I have few maples in my garden, not in pots.

Love your maples! Where do you get your signs?

I just can’t seem to get a cutting to take, any tips?

Mine are south facing and full sun (when we get it) and love it

Can you please tell me when you say morning sun have hours can they take? Thank you.

Great video I think sun damage is a very broad topic, for example you could have a very strong shishigashira that is perfectly fine and lush in full sun all day, then you could have a much weaker tree of the same cultivar that can not handle sun at all maybe for many years until it can grow its waxy coatings, there could be a number of reasons for this, maybe the tree was grown from a cutting or a layer, or maybe it’s on its own roots or doesn’t have a very strong root system or produces leggy soft growth… Also age, previous care, substrate and wind can play a huge role in leaf health… I totally get some cultivars are more adapted to full sun, but its also worth keeping a good eye on so called sun loving trees incase they suffer

Enjoying your videos very much. After seeing your weeping maple in a wall pot in this video its a great idea I hadn't considered. Perhaps you could do a video on suitable weeping varieties for wall mounted pots in sun and shade? Just a thought for different content that viewers may find interesting?

Interesting video as always! I have a new build house that I moved into in march the garden is getting much more sun than anticipated, also there are no mature trees around ATM because nobody has planted anything yet. I am just about to start a Japanese styled garden and would like to know could you please name five sun tolerant Acer’s that I can consider adding to my collection? I am in south Wales quite near the coast.

Very informative thank you. I did notice with my Moonrise a couple of months ago when we had more sun it was turning the lovely orange colour but now with the lack of Sun for the last few weeks it's going back to being more green. The problem where I am in Cornwall the clouds blow in from the coast and just sit above our town which I think is ranked the 7th wettest City in the UK

I envy your weather, its 35 here in the Southern US. Even my Shishigashira, Seiryu and Osakazuki are feeling the heat and struggling (in pots). Your Ukigumo is beautiful! Such a striking looking tree.

Lovely garden, I have a mollycoddled little Orange Dream bonsai which has been in full sun and has a 'sun tan' with no burning yet - Its almost fully red/orange! Definitely moving him to some shade now the weather is improving

Great video, weather has been less favorable here in The Netherlands as well. It did bring me some powdery milldew on my maples yay! Do you have some experience with milldew?

Really helpful, thank you.
