Description
Acer palmatum, commonly known as Japanese maple, palmate maple, or smooth Japanese maple, is a species of woody plant native to Japan, Korea, China, eastern Mongolia, and southeast Russia. This cultivar has red foliage.
These plants are sometimes used for bonsai, though they can be grown as a regular full-sized tree.
Hardiness zones: 4-9
Location: Sun or shade. In southern/warm climates it does well with mid-day
Note: Ornamental use only. These seeds and/or plants may be poisonous.
Germination: Start these seeds right away to preserve viability, no matter the time of year. These seeds need a warm and cold stratification period. Soak seed for 24 hours before planting. Sow the seeds just under the surface of a sterile seed-start mix, and water in. Keep at room temperature for 120 days. Keep lightly moist during this time. They will not grow yet. Then a cooling period is required. Cover them with plastic and place in a fridge for 120 days. Be sure they stay moist. After the cold stratification period they are then brought back to room temperature for them to germinate. Germination is in 14-60 days after the warming period.
