Growing and Maintenance Tips:


Best planted in a well-drained soil with high organic matter. Japanese maples are grown as specimen trees or multi-stemmed plants. Any pruning should be done in summer. Mulch well, but avoid heaping mulch against the stem. Most cultivars need full sun or light afternoon shade. Trompenburg will tolerate more afternoon sun than most other red cultivars.

Additional Notes about Japanese Maple:


This cultivar was discovered as a seedling at the Trompenburg Arboretum in Rotterdam, The Netherlands.
