Choosing this plant for your space

The feathered form is useful where the outline of the whole tree is part of the design. Consider nearby boundaries and planting, and choose the starting size to suit your layout.

Position and soil

Choose a position in full sun or partial shade. The soil should retain moisture while allowing excess water to drain away.

Choosing your size

The option you select determines the height supplied. Use the listed measurements to plan the quantity and spacing for your scheme before ordering.

Planting and care

Choose a position in full sun or partial shade. Keep the soil moist while allowing excess water to drain freely.

Water thoroughly after planting and check soil moisture regularly during establishment, particularly in dry or windy weather. Keep competing weeds clear and avoid piling mulch against stems.

What you’ll receive

Supplied according to the option you select for this product.

Style: Regular Tree.
Root Type: Pot Grown.
Height: as selected when ordering.

Delivery and unpacking

On arrival, carefully remove outer packaging and check the plants against your order. Handle plants by their pot or root ball where possible, rather than pulling on stems or branches.

Check root moisture and water if needed. Until planting, keep the plants upright in a sheltered position and prevent roots from drying out. If supplied bare-root, keep the roots covered and moist and plant promptly when conditions allow.

Larger plants and root balls can be heavy. Arrange suitable help and equipment for safe unloading and positioning.

Delivery arrangements and any charges are those confirmed for your order.

Important information

Hypoglycin A has been found in Japanese maple, so keep its seeds and foliage away from grazing horses. Poisoning cases are not established at the same level as sycamore, but it should not be used as horse fodder.
