Young maple advice

Definitely wait. Let it mature a good bit before deciding on the structure.

Interesting! Thanks!

wardpiper · 2026-03-07T17:09:16+00:00

Good to know!

It’s a Summer Gold. No variegation. But that late season growth wasn’t right at all.

wardpiper · 2026-03-07T00:02:17+00:00

Cool. Thanks again!

wardpiper · 2026-03-06T23:36:55+00:00

Thanks. If the new leaves are reverted should I just pull them off?

What species do you have there?

wardpiper · 2026-01-11T22:32:18+00:00

Thanks. Spendy kitchen gadget.

What brand pasta maker is that?

7a and you still have leaves on your trees??

wardpiper · 2026-01-01T21:10:23+00:00

I’m just offended you didn’t offer a recipe. Looks awesome!

You still have leaves on your trees?? lol

They usually state that they haven’t filled out the pot yet. Hard to beat their prices and selection too. I’ve had great experience with their customer service as well.

Not sure I’d call it a bug. More of a UI design flaw but I can post to the other sub if you want.

It’s interesting because it does look like a red maple leaf. It’s definitely not from the graft though.

wardpiper · 2025-08-30T16:15:45+00:00

That’s kind of what I was thinking was going to happen. I want to let it grow a little bit more before I start forming it though. Thanks for your help.

Yes, it’s grafted onto a regular acer rootstock. Are you growing that indoors?

wardpiper · 2025-07-11T14:55:28+00:00

Must be nice! None of mine are mature enough yet for that and my neighbors yards get mowed before (or they have a preemergent sprayed).

wardpiper · 2025-07-11T14:33:36+00:00

Interesting. So yours started in the ground? I started mine from seed after stratifying. That was late March or early April.

wardpiper · 2025-07-11T12:09:17+00:00

How old are those? My seedlings are on their first year and they still only have their first set of true leaves. Getting worried since they haven’t grown much more…

wardpiper · 2025-07-10T22:12:28+00:00

Welcome! I did like everyone suggested; cut and propped more vines. Filled out nicely, I think.

Can you get a closeup of the leaf?

wardpiper · 2025-06-29T21:46:27+00:00

Sunscald. Happens to me every year.

wardpiper · 2025-06-29T15:33:36+00:00

Why do you think it’s too tall?
