Shelly / Craig;

Are you suggesting I leave the Bloodgood indoors ?
Hmmmmm .....
I started a dozen trees from seeds this spring from a parent
tree in my
mothers front yard.
Her tree is a multi-trunk that's 25 feet tall.
30 years ago she was told it was a Bloodgood, and from my
research, it
certainly looks like one.
Maybe it's the seedlings that can't survive the cold.
This would account for the fact that none of her garden
seedlings have ever
survived the winter.

The Japanese maples (ALL of them) are among the trees that should
be kept overwinter in an attached, dark, garage. Even if some
Japanese maples thrive in the ground in your neighborhood, their
survival rate in pots is at least one climate zone warmer.
