Mendo Maples News:
Getting a high-quality Japanese maple safely across the country takes the right box, the right service, and the right timing. To get our trees to Eastern and Central states we need to use UPS 3 Day Select to protect the investment you're making in your garden. Carrier rates have increased substantially due to ongoing geopolitical factors beyond our control — costs we've largely absorbed until now. For Eastern and Central State orders, we now charge a Flat Shipping Rate of $18. for 1 gallon trees and $32. for our large specimens at checkout. West Coast orders ship free, as always.
Summer has come on fast with drying winds here, and it is time to water! Weather is warming up all across the country, and orders are coming in! When you receive your plant in the next month or so, this is the time to re-pot/ plant before the weather gets too hot.
Pictured left: Rhode Island Red. This is a stunning dwarf Japanese maple that tops out at about 6 feet, making it a perfect container plant, or addition to a small garden or landscape. As a reminder, red varieties will get brighter red with more sunlight, and more green with shade, so plant accordingly!

Best Specimens
I’ve ordered maples from conifer kingdom, mr maple and fast growing trees. The Autumn Moon maple I ordered from Mendocino was the best specimen I’ve ever ordered from a mail order nursery! Will order more from Mendocino, very pleased with order!

Quality Trees
I’ve ordered several Japanese maples from Mendocino and every time they arrive healthy, transplant well. You can tell he takes pride in his trees; the graft lines are seamless and the trees are shaped/trimmed perfectly. I typically search around the web trying to find the best “bang for my buck”, however, the quality of these trees is worth every penny.

Nice Sized
Amazing! I wasn’t sure what to expect, as I had ordered Crimson Queen Weeping Maples before from other places & only received a small stick. I knew the tree I ordered from you was at least 4 feet tall. I was pleasantly surprised to see full branches with leaves! It is so beautiful & the money spent for this tree is well worth it! Thank you for sending living, quality trees!
