Davidsans Japanese Maples

I love this tree unfortunately like most every winter red or orange branched JM except Glowing Embers, these types of JMs hate cold and any wetness. Our area is warmer now and unless we get a prolonged period of -10 to -20 degrees this plant should do fine. And for folks st. Louis and southward This tree should do fine. The 4 stars are for northern growers BUT 5 stars for warmer areas. It is perhaps one of the prettiest trees i ever owned Til about 6 years ago we got such a prolonged cold spell.. It does great in heat, so that's no problem. its bark is more orange red and yellow /green so don't expect a red stem . I find this stem and trunk color much cooler and different .. it looks super cool summer and winter. If you can grow it ( warmer areas) get this one . It outshines all other red/orange winter branched cultivars by a wide margin!! zone 6
