Comparing Weeping Red Laceleafs: Crimson Queen, Tamukeyama, & Inaba shidare - JAPANESE MAPLE

In this video, three different weeping red lace leaf Japanese maples are compared:
1. Tamukeyama: Known for its later leafing, which helps it avoid late frosts. It has a good color retention throughout the season, offering a maroon hue and bright fall colors. It grows to about 6 feet tall and wide in 10 years and is heat tolerant, making it suitable for various conditions.
2. Crimson Queen: This cultivar has a lower, spreading habit and is ideal for shaded locations, thriving in morning sun and afternoon shade. It grows to about 3-4 feet tall and 5-6 feet wide in 10 years. It’s known for its vivid crimson fall color and is good for smaller gardens or container planting.
3. Inaba Shidare: Distinguished by its cascading growth, this maple is highly heat tolerant and has unique lavender-purple spring colors that can turn red-maroon. It grows about 5.5 feet tall and 9 feet wide and is noted for its impressive fall color and traditional weeping form.
The video emphasizes that while all three are excellent choices, the best one for your garden will depend on specific conditions and preferences.

This was so very helpful. I love the compare and contrast videos. I would love to see more videos like this.

[@saraw8503]

I have a serpentine trained tamukeyama. I didn’t know one from the other when I purchased and planted it. I am in coastal NC and have been told Japanese maples are not suited to our conditions. But I love pushing boundaries so decided to give it a try. Two years in and all is well.

[@sambabird7]

I love these comparison videos with the geeky details!💕❤️

[@ohiorn34]

According to the Japanese Maple book fourth edition by J D Vertrees and Peter Gregory, Inaba means “leaf like a rice plant”. The Japanese observed that in the rain this plant looked liked ine (a rice plant), an old form that turned crimson in the fall. Love your videos. I placed my first Mr Maple order a couple weeks ago. It arrived very well packed and quickly. I ordered ‘Shaina’. She looks lovely in her new home.

Beautiful specimens. We have a Crimson Queen and thank you for displaying a mature example. MrMaple Giftcard

[@sb6759]

Love this comparison, well done. Subscribed and liked I am in 8B full sun. Do you think Inaba shidare will survive?

[@MrMapleShow]

Typically does very well once established but it will green up some later in summer

[@sb6759]

Looking for a shorter height and width vibrant lacy Red maple.... Is Red Dragon or Inaba shidare ?? Zone 8 B, full sun Please advise on me

[@lonestarpatriot876]

I have alot of JM's and Crimson Queen is one of the slower growers for me even though I have several cultivars that are said to be even slower growing.

[@brandonjohnson2728]

GREAT video thanks so much for all the info Tim y'all are the best so knowledgeable it brightens my day to watch these videos and learn from y'all I appreciate it. Also did you say turkey mamas can handle more sun?? Lol

[@MrMapleShow]

Yeah they can

[@ngocvu37]

Zone 8b here. Full sun, no scorching leave. Grow like grass. This is by far the best japanese maple imo.

[@BONSAIenCORTO]

I would like to see a seigen cultivar. Thanks for these videos.

[@jennifergreene8891]

Hi! Love your channel and all the knowledge you share. I have a Q? I love the weeping laceleafs red or purple, no greens. I live in zone 9b texas gulf coast. (Galveston County) high humidity and heat index upto triple digits. Would you recommend a small laceleaf for my area and how would I care for it? Pot or in ground. I would greatly appreciate your recommendation. Thank you in advance.

[@Alotofpeoplelikeme]

Excellent reference video on these weeping reds Tim! "MRMAPLE GIFTCARD"

[@sb6759]

Tamukeyama vs Inaba shidare , which one's most heat tolerance in Full Sun 6 hrs. , and 8 B zones? Please reply

[@MrMapleShow]

Tamukeyama

[@thesponeny]

I had a Japanese Maple in a planter on a rooftop terrace in NYC, but I have no idea what type it was. I have some poor pictures that I've shown people. No one has identified it though.

[@kp-gbuniqueinterest]

Yeah I had two Crimson queens back in CA but our neighbors decided to cut their trees which than sun burned my trees. They had the perfect filtered light. they were also next to my small pond. So Pissed. Well Moved to NYS and bought some trees last year from you guys. They all survived. Was looking to by more a few months ago but the ones i wanted were already sold out. Im making a Japanese/Korean, Chinese garden on our 1 Arce land. Im trying to buy different ones before i buy 2nd same plant. being in NYS when woudl be the last time i can plant a tree and is Jobes organic tree fertilizer sticks ok for Japanese maples? I use a lot Jobes and Espomsma (dont remember spelling)

[@smallfaucet]

I've always ignored the CQ because of the similar characteristics to the other 2, which I have both of. Bewleys Red & Dark Straw are a couple of other similar trees \m/

[@vln4443]

Was hoping you would show an orangeola and also hold all 3 leaves up next to one another.

[@micheller3297]

This is beautiful I love the amazing red thanks for the information my two red ones are so beautiful I don't know if I could do green but I have thought about it thanks so much and God bless Mr. Maple 100 gift card¡!!!
