Our booklet, Growing Japanese Maples in Containers contains a wealth of information about pruning, root pruning and growing maples in containers. You can or download a pdf version for free. If you have trouble opening the pdf, right-click the link and download it to your disk and open it from there rather than opening it in your browser.

Don't know your Plant Hardiness zone? We have a tool that lets you type in your Zipcode and returns your USDA Hardiness zone. We also have the 2004 USDA map which has changed. Both can be viewed here. The zipcode lookup is also available from the Tree Finder.
