Very good presentation of garden! Every year is different and this year for example has been very good for me here where I live, a lot of colors but I know it has been disastrous for other areas. The heat, the heat...Jordan will always be the burned one, Taylor is a challenge. What a big tree Osaka has put on! Two years on land have been fantastic for him. Your parents' garden is a very good refuge for all you have brought, how about the current collection on your balcony?
Hi and thanks again! Some changes every year make it more interesting I think but it becomes more challenging to find the right new spot for a maple now as my parents' garden is too sunny for a lot of cultivars. Jordan always stays strong every year but Ukigumo for example does not really grow for the last 2 years. And the garden is also very packed so small trees are hardly visible now like my Red nails or Shishigashira. So, rearrangement will go on. I am also trying to convince my parents to create some new potential locations and make the lawn area a bit smaller but still I have no success here. The trees on my balcony could do better this year. The new soil that I chose for repotting was not worth it. The trees did not thrive well in it. Hopefully they will at least survive. In fall I will check the roots and maybe repot again. We will see.
@@Acerdorer Hello, thank you for detailing the development of all the maples and the problems you have encountered. About the problem with the substrate that you have used and you say that it has not worked, I use a German brand compost mix. In a proportion of 3:3 I mix acid and normal "Composana" and add 1:1 of blonde peat and humus, I repeat this formula until the corresponding pot is filled. It always gives me good results and above all there is no stress for the maple when I decide to reduce the root ball both to adjust and to renew the soil after 3-4 years. Apart from this, it is wonderful that your parents accept your proposals but they are setting limits so as not to invade them too much 😄. It would always be a great pleasure for me to hear about your progress in this exclusive gardening. Have you thought about uploading an updated video of your terrace? Thank you for your collaboration because it is always of great help.
Hey! Sorry for my late answer. Thank you for your infos/tips. I just bought a new soil now from a local garden center that once got a good test result. It has pH 5,3 and contains peat. I will then only add some perlite to improve drainage. Hope my trees will like this soil more then. Composana I also know. I put an interesting seedling from my Osakazuki in a small pot with Composana regular plant soil at my parents and the seedling did develop well so far. Unfortunately an update video from my balcony has to wait a little longer. First I want to repot some trees. I already wish you great weekend!
@@Acerdorer hey! I am very grateful for your efforts in general and don't worry at all that you responded later. Me I am very glad that you have found your recipes and that you also explain them, it is a world of knowledge about what growing those Japanese maples entails. From what I have read at a general level, there are maples that are slightly acidic, others more so, others that like some soil with clay and others not so much...so it is good that we invent our recipes to improve both resistance and color of these trees. It will always be a great pleasure to hear from you and as you are saying, there may be a video of your balcony or it will be close to winter.
Danke für das Video! ich wohne in Kiel, meinst du, dass Jordan beinuns in der Gegend etwas mehr Sonne verträgt als Orange Dream? Habe gerade einen bei Nielsen bestellt.
Ja Moin! Also unser Jordan ist noch empfindlicher als der Orange Dream was Sonne betrifft. Wenn möglich würd ich Jordan eher nur nen Platz mit Sonne bis mittags geben. Wobei, unser verbrennt zwar immer stark im Sommer aber treibt auch jedes Jahr wieder schön gelb aus. Besten Gruß nach Kiel ☺️
Vielen Dank! Werde den Rat beherzigen!
Thanks for the great video!
