Acer Palmatum 'Jade Dragon' Old Tree Planted in the Garden! - JAPANESE MAPLES EPISODE 203

Today's discussion focuses on the 'Jade Dragon' Japanese maple, a distinctive dwarf variety introduced by Mr. Maple, the company originally known as Nichols Nursery, founded by my father. Named by Robert Jackman after initially considering 'Roja Yatsubusa', the name was changed to 'Jade Dragon' to better reflect the tree's characteristics and symbolic meanings. 'Jade Dragon' is known for its slow growth, dense habit, and small leaves, making it highly popular among bonsai enthusiasts. This particular tree, grafted in the early 2000s but over 30 years old, is part of Mr. Maple's Area 51 collection, a term coined after a notable sale of a similar tree at a garden show. Jade Dragon's deep emerald color and adaptability to various conditions contribute to its high demand, leading to quick sell-outs. Its origin story is a testament to the dedication and passion of its founders, and it remains a treasured variety for collectors and gardeners. Jade Dragon: https://mrmaple.com/products/buy-acer... ACER PALMATUM 'JADE DRAGON' RARE JADE DRAGON DWARF JAPANESE MAPLE TREE ZONES 5-9 EXCELLENT FOR BONSAI 'JADE DRAGON' IS A RARE DWARF SELECTION THAT IS ONE OF THE SMALLEST DWARFS OF THEM ALL. 'JADE DRAGON' LEAFS OUT THE EARLY SPRING WITH TINY TIGHTLY CLUSTERED CHARTREUSE GREEN LEAVES. AS SPRING PROGRESSES, THE NEW GROWTH MATURES TO A RICH DEEP GREEN. SUMMER CHARTREUSE FLUSHES OF GROWTH ARE EVEN TIGHTER IN HABIT WITH SMALLER LEAVES. FALL COLORS ARE BRIGHT GOLDEN YELLOW TO ORANGE. IN 25 YEARS THE FIRST GRAFTED 'JADE DRAGON' HAS REACHED 3 FT IN HEIGHT IN AN UPRIGHT DENSE HABIT WITH A 2.5-3 FT CANOPY TOWARD THE TOP. THIS IS MUCH SMALLER AND MUCH TIGHTER THAN 'GOSHIKI KOTOHIME', 'KOTOHIME', OR 'HUPP'S DWARF'. 'JADE DRAGON' IS THE PERFECT DWARF FOR CONTAINERS, FAIRY GARDENS, MINIATURE RAILROAD GARDENS, CONFIER BEDS, OR SMALL SPACES IN THE LANDSCAPE. IT CAN HANDLE BOTH HIGH HEAT AND COLD CLIMATES (ZONES 5-9). 'JADE DRAGON' IS THE FIRST INTRODUCTION BY OUR NURSERY. IT WAS FOUND AS A CHANCE SEEDLING AND BROUGHT TO OUR FATHER BY ANOTHER MAPLE CONNOISSEUR. THIS SELECTION'S MINIATURE SIZE, THICK TRUCK, ABILITY TO MANIPULATE STRUCTURE, AND THE ABILITY TO MAKE THE LEAVES SMALLER MAKE 'JADE DRAGON' EXCEPTIONAL FOR BONSAI. BONSAI WAS ORIGINALLY STARTED IN CHINA. IN CHINA, A JADE DRAGON IS A DRAGON MADE OUT OF JADE THAT IS A MEMENTO GIVEN AT A SPECIAL OCCASION SUCH AS BIRTHDAY, WEDDING, OR ANNIVERSARY. THIS 'JADE DRAGON' WAS PRODUCED FROM THE ORIGINAL. At MrMaple.com we are passionate about Japanese maples!
