    Wooh you saved my very first Japanese maple 💥💚. Thanks I had it in a huge pot. The leaves curled and dried. I tried moving to a shade gave some root stimulator but it kept dying. After seeing your video I down potted drastically and pruned a bit. Now 2 weeks later it has new bright red leaves and looks great. So happy 💥

    My Japanese maple tree started turning brown around June and now its leafs are all gone it’s just brunches 😢 I googled and found your channel. We’re located in Southern California which hardly rain and mostly dry in air. What did I do wrong with it? We got it from local nursery and I thought I did everything they told me to do 😢😢 I wanted to see colored 🍁 in fall.

      In hot climates they need a lot of shade but also lots of protection from wind. In Japan they grow under larger trees that offer both!

    So many great tips! Its really useful that you show examples of each problem. Just one more to add would be raise the pots off the ground with pot feet or put them on gravel like you have so they don't get root rot in wet weather!

      Great addition, I forget to mention as having so much gravel means I just put them where I like. Thanks for sharing 👍

    Hi Carl, i also lost a branch because of friction 😂 it was a tomato stick that should stabilize the branch in the wind but instead it ended without bark 😅 lesson learned.

    Thanks for another great video Carl. I've actually just noticed that my Orange Dream's leaves have been skeletonised very similar to a problem I had with a couple of my roses a few years ago that were affected by the rose say fly larvae. I'm guessing this is a similar problem so do you think the Isopropanol would work for this. Apart from a couple of new leaves every leaf has been affected so may be too late.

      @@nettym659 definitely worth a go, it seems to work really well and evaporates really quickly. Seems a cheaper and better option than using some sort of pesticide 👍

    Great vid mate! Would you use isopropanol against milldew or fungus?

      @@Japanesemaples I think i'm gonna test it out as well, I got both isopropanol and milldew so lets go haha. I just wasnt sure if it would hurt the tree, but if you use it for bugs on your maples its worth giving it a try. I have read that UVC light also kills milldew btw.

      @@XraycatNL let me know how you get on ! I bought the tree with Mildew half price and have not experienced it before. Not attractive but I doubt it will do any harm long term. Always good to solve the underlying problem and I'm really tempted to downsize the pot....

      @@Japanesemaples Yeah its also a first for me, from what i could gather its because of warm humid weather. Its unsightfull but doesnt harm the tree and there's a good chance it wont return when it has dropped leaf. It can spread to other plants via wind so you might want to keep an eye out for that.

      Because of all the rain we’ve had in the UK this year I’ve invested in a very large cold frame to be able to regulate the amount of water my Maples receive!

    What type of maple tree is the one that appears at the bottom left at 15:06? The pink one.
