Wait… In real life, the maple scientifically known as Acer palmatum is the “Inazuma” Japanese maple?
The same Japanese maple… that Kazuha’s (EN) constellation “Acer Palmatum” is named after?? In Chinese it’s 枫红座 (Feng1hong2zhuo4) which is just “red maple constellation” directly speaking
Seems this species is also known as Irohamomiji (いろは紅葉 or イロハモミジ I believe?) or Irohakaede (いろは楓/イロハカエデ)
Kaedehara Kazuha’s name is written as 楓原万葉 in kanji…

🌿イロハモミジと言うらしい🌿
青楓・若楓というのは初夏の季語だそうですが、4月半ばのこの日は、風がビュービュー吹いて、陽春の候とは程遠い日でした。

I'm finally planting these Japanese Maple seeds a couple of years after I bought this grow kit from a Walmart
Now I need to leave it in the fridge for 20 days for stratification reasons
The kit came with 7 seeds, so I'm hoping I can get at least a couple to germinate after I take it out of the fridge on February 19th

Tips for Growing Acer Palmatum 'Red Feathers' with Japanese Maple Feather Leaf Elegance
Cultivating the exquisite Acer palmatum 'Red Feathers' requires a thoughtful approach to ensure optimal growth and vibrant foliage. To enhance its beauty, plant this Japanese Maple in well-draining, acidic soil with a slightly sheltered location from the harsh afternoon sun. Regular watering is crucial, particularly in periods of drought, to maintain consistently moist soil.

Japanese Maple enthusiasts often find success in providing a balanced, slow-release fertilizer in spring to nourish the 'Red Feathers' and enhance its vivid coloration.
For those seeking the captivating charm of the Japanese Maple Feather Leaf, Acer palmatum 'Red Feathers' stands out with its unique, finely dissected foliage. Its feathery leaves bring a touch of elegance to any garden landscape. If you're ready to add this ornamental beauty to your collection, consider exploring offerings from reputable nurseries where quality and expertise come together to deliver exceptional varieties of Acer palmatum, including the captivating 'Red Feathers'.

Flower of the Week, 29th October 2023.
