My Propagation Setup Tour | Japanese Maple Trees & More
Follow along with me as I take you on a tour though my propagation setup. This tour includes Japanese Maple trees, Lavender, Wisteria, Clematis, Forsythia, Azalea plants and more.
Great video Johnny question when do you put your Japanese maples up for sale and how could I get some from you? I’ve been in the business since the mid-70s been route in cuttings forever since my college days but never did Japanese maple so I will be doing that this week. Any recommendations on perennial seeds also
Thanks for sharing your setup with us, it looks nice and neat which I like. I sort of envy how you can just have your seedling pots and trays out on benches or on the ground. If I were to do this I would lose probably all of my young plants, as we have an ungodly amount of squirrels that climb anywhere they can and depending on the time of year will either 1. Bury their acorns in pots 2. Dig for acorns in pots or 3. Run around severing stems of seedlings. It's enough to give you nightmares if you are a tree gardener….and I haven't even mentioned the deer we get and rabbits, voles, japanese beetles 😱
oh no! there was a white butterfly/ gypsy moth i see you have flying around. check for cutworms! they are my worst pest next to green leaf hopper aphids. and the ants that farm them lol
I'm so thankfull for your videos Jonny… i just started with Japanese maple Trees and bought my first one last week. But with all the knowlege of yours i hope i can get them to grow and survive 🙂 I also want to start with growing my own cuttings and just ordered some rooting hormon Keep it going Greetings from germany 🙂

If your spruce cuttings dont do very well, try late winter / early spring cuttings. That has worked well for me with sitka and alberta spruce
I have tried several years to propagate maples. NO luck for me but congratulations on your success.
Hey, Johnny, could you do a video how to keep japanese maple tree leave healthy.
Hi Johnny. How the winter I’m from Canada I don’t have green house. Thank you 😊
