These seedlings, if coming from a grafted cultivar, will not be true to the
original form-- doesn't mean you won't have a nice looking tree, mind you.
They vary in vigour widely.

My neighbor has a J. Maple, and every year about this time (Mid-Atlantic),
I
find some tiny little volunteers in the lawn and flower beds.

Can I pot these, or even plant them, and hope that they'll grow into a
healthy specimen?

Any tips on the right procedure, root conditioner, fertilizer, etc would
be
appreciated.
