All of my Japanese Maples were germinated from seeds picked up in my neighborhood. I therefore have a pretty close comparison between what I'm growing and what I see around.
My trees started pushing out buds nearly a month ago, but the neighborhood trees have only just started. Are my trees just warmer?
They are on a North facing balcony, exposed to rain, and are about 5 feet from the building. It is a mostly covered balcony cut into the building, not a Juliet, so there's not much wind exposure.
I repotted the most vigorous ones two weeks ago. They're progressing, but leaves are still a bit droopy. I assume that's because they don't get much direct sunlight.
Apart from the initial flooding at repot, I have not yet watered them at all because we have pretty constant rain. Therefore, they have probably not quite had a chance to fully dry out.
Anything to worry about? Always looking for something to worry about! 😀
