Nice. This time of year I find seedlings sprouting in my pots and large containers that house annuals over the summer and that are positioned near or partially under a green JM that grows over parts of the deck. I'll dig them up and pot them all together to go for some kind of bonsai scene.

Nice. Where did you get Bigtooth maple seeds? I may try and get some at Dallas Arboretum or Ft Worth Garden in the fall. I have a small one starting to leaf out in the backyard grown by Love Creek Nursery.

I have around 150 Shantung maple seeds that I planted and so far about 10 have sprouted in the past week.

Very nice seedlings. What zone are you? I am in zone 8 and my JM seedlings were just starting to leaf out. I love the new spring growth. It is just as pretty as spring flowers! It's lots of fun to see what you will get with seedlings.

the bigtooth maple seeds came from lawyers nursery. Those arent all seedlings the spring color photo is a cultivated form of acer palmatum (joanies pink or something like that) and the maple with big leaves is a chinese species, not acer palmatum.

im in 8b, we have a long growing season. But some of mine are further along than others.

Where did lawyer's nursery get the bigtooth maple seeds from? I found a source for the seeds but they came from Utah and I wasn't sure if they can tolerate Texas weather as good as the native Texas ones.

None of the photos are currently available...

Here are a few photo's of some of my Japanese maple seedlings. I just love all the different types of foliage. The spring foliage is so colorful.
