Frank Byles sells young grafts that are not landscape
size. That is why I am waiting for my Beni Hime.

I have about 25 bonsaied maples including groves. I
have one kotohime grove under two inches in height.

I have excess kotohime rooted cuttings if anyone wants
to trade. Write me off line.

I have never seen any nurseries ok LI sell Japanese
maole seedlings or young grafts. They only sell
landscape trees obviously. Last fall got lucky at
one nursery that was selling A.P.Shishgashira (Lion
head), for $25 bucks. They had 2 which I took. but
that is rare
I have found 2 or 3 reliable sources on Ebay. I
have about 50 Japanese Maples.

Thanks for replying. I've gotten most of what I
have from the local
sources. They don't provide much more than

(therefore easily saleable) landscape items. I'm

variety
of maples in any
stage of development.

WWW.MOUNTAINMAPLES.COM is the best source I know
of
for
maples. Your major problem is that Zone 9 is
pretty
warm
for almost all maples. A. palmatum will NOT
thrive
in those
climates -- at least not in pots.

The trident maple probably will do OK, but no
better
than that.
