Feed Japanese maple
Let’s fertilize the plants when implanting them, or every 2-3 years, towards the end of the winter or beginning of Autumn. A good quantity of organic fertilizer, such as manure or earthworm humus should be mixed to the soil at the foot of the stem; in this manner we will supply it with a good quantity of nutrients and we will also improve the mixture of the soil.

Care Japanese maple
These plants are shrubs. This plant in the summer assumes a yellow colouring; it is large in size and can reach 6 m high. It doesn't keep its leaves in the winter. The Japanese maple grows erect, developing a short stem with a small crown, usually roundish.

Irrigation Japanese mapleTenere asciutto
We should pay particular attention to those plants which have been recently placed in shelter; during the years, trees develop a cospicuous radical apparatus, and need watering only if the climate is particularly dry. We suggest watering the The Japanese maple every 4-5 weeks with 1-2 buckets of water , which means when the soil has been dry for days; if the season should be very hot and arid we can intensify the quantity of irrigations, although we must avoid leaving the substratum soaked with water.

Adversity Japanese maple
As the day-time temperatures rise at the beginning of the spring, it is agreeable to practice a preventive treatment, with a wide-range insecticide, which should be applied when there aren’t flowerings in the garden. Before the buds become too large, it is advisable to also treat them with a wide-range fungicide, to prevent the development of fungal diseases which spread easily when there is an elevated environmental moisture.

Substrate Japanese maple
These trees need a dissolved soil with an optimum drainage.
