Edition DescriptionRevised edition
SynopsisAmong the first titles published in 1978, with more than 150,000 copies in print in three editions, Japanese Maples is a Timber Press classic. Japanese maples are unlike any other tree. They boast a remarkable diversity of color, form, and texture. As a result of hundreds of years of careful breeding, they take the center stage in any garden they are found. In the last decade, the number of Japanese maple cultivars available to gardeners has doubled and there is a pressing need for an up-to-date reference. This new fourth edition offers detailed descriptions of over 150 new introductions, updates to plant nomenclature, and new insights into established favorites. Gardeners will relish the practical advice that puts successful cultivation within everyone's grasp. Accurate identification is made simple with over 600 easy-to-follow descriptions and 500 color photographs., In this new edition, Peter Gregory, chairman of the Maple Society, draws on decades of experience to provide over 320 cultivars of Acer palmatum and 60 cultivars of other Japanese maple species. Home gardeners may find it hard to resist growing them all!

  • Fantastic book covering Japanese Maples from A to Z

    A comprehensive book on Japanese Maples. Well written, informative, and thoroughly captivating. The Japanese maple is one of the most beautiful trees with ever changing color schemes from spring to the showcase fall splendor. The photos in this book are wonderful at capturing the grandeur of the diversity of Japanese Maples. I own the third edition of this book and must say The 4th edition is well worth the money. Over 200 additional cultivars in vivid color with detailed descriptions. This is the best book on Japanese Maples I've had the pleasure to read. I find myself coming back to re read details on many varieties and am now generating a list of new tree varieties to add to our landscape. The Authors have done a magnificent job and I highly recommend this book. If you love Japanese maples, this is a must own book!

  • Japapnese Maple Hard-bound books through Goodwill. Very Happy!

    Great hard bound book of Japanese Maples. I have the paper back, but this book is so much better for photos and more in-depth descriptions of each type of maple. Very good Selle and book arrived well-packaged and quicker that I expected.
