Posts: 1,260	Re: Japanese Maples in zone 5 Count your self lucky, you have about 300 cultivars of maple that will most all thrive in your zone. To get an idea of the number of cultivars find the book Japanese Maples by J. D. Vertrees Now let the hunt begin. For your yard for bonsai for patio trees japanese maples will give you a lifetime of pleasure. ripsgreentree __________________ ripsgreentree It requires an open hand to give and to recieve.
