Japanese Maple: Help For a Friend...

Hi everybody!

My friend, Gary, is over and we were talking plants. He has a Japanese Maple that's fairly small... He says it's not doing so well... The leaves are already falling off and it just looks 'sickly'... I know that's not a great description, but when he told me about it, and that he's not sure what's wrong or what to do about it... I couldn't wait to tell him about my friends on www.gardenersindex.com. I told him that I could post this question and have an answer for him within a couple of hours, if that. He's going to send me a pic of the tree tomorrow, since it's dark out now, so that I can show you what he's talking bout. I haven't seen the tree, myself, either. All I know is that you guys will for SURE KNOW WHAT TO DO!!!

So, if anybody has any advice, even though my description is so vague, please help!!! I appreciate all of the advice I've gotten from all of you, and I know Gary will, too!!!

Thanks!!!!! :D

Sensational Sensation Lilac

"Yes, it does seem like plants have good years and not so good years. I've seen this with our dogwoods. This year, the bloom is very sparse, whereas in past years, they've been loaded with blooms. Hopefully, next year they will go back to…"

Finished Planting New Bed Today

"Yes, that is slate holding up the raised beds. We recycled it when we had the wall going down our driveway rebuilt. I think it will be a few years before this bed really fills in, but I think it will be worth the wait. (Gardening teaches…"
