Japanese maple can be wonderfully cultivated in the bucket
Many varieties of Japanese Maple grow very slowly and reach an annual growth of only five to six centimeters. These rather small remaining Japanese maples are wonderful for a tub culture, as long as you look after the trees in the right way. Especially Japanese Japanese Maple with its filigree leaves is suitable for this purpose.
Selection of the planter
Of course, the Japanese maple needs it, so it needs the pase planter. Make sure to choose not only a sufficiently deep but also a wide one. As a rootworm, the roots of the Japanese maple are not particularly deep, but rather grow wider. In addition, it makes sense to select a pot of natural material (such as clay), since excess moisture can escape better from it. In plastic buckets, waterlogging quickly forms.
The right location
Even for tubahorns, you need a location that suits you. Whether this is in the direct sun or in the semi-shade, depends on the needs of the selected variety. In any case, Japanese Maple feels at home in a warm and wind-sheltered place, and you can conveniently change potted plants quickly.
Ensure a good drainage
Although the Japanese maple needs a good deal of water, it does not tolerate any waterlogging. Therefore, you should pay attention to a very good drainage when planting:
Optimally care for bucket maple
Naturally, a Japanese maple cultivated in a bucket needs more care than a planted specimen. Pay particular attention to the following points:
Tips
Although the Japanese Maple is hardy even in our latitudes, should be kept in the pot specimens protected from frost - otherwise the roots could freeze.
