Yes.. there are two Japaneese maples there.. one in the front the other in the back 1/2 picture.. the front is a Oridio Nashiki.. a green w/ white and pink variagtion..
the one in the back 1/2 picture is a feathery cut leaf one with an underplanting of three blue rug junipers.. bot I got from a grafter the late Mr Wolf in Philladelphia.. after seeing an article on his grafting in Fine Gardening.. they have wintered / summered up there nicely for the last 8 years or so..
Donna & AHelms..
Thanks so much.. it is a great labor of love there... it is a challenge... but it's easier on the roof in this weather .. it was 64* F yesterafternoon about 3PM.. at that time the roof temps were 94*F.. cozey warmth.. a tropical microclime all over the roof.. the tropical corner pictured in this post... it's located just to the right of the blooming plumeria in the back 1/2 picture.. kind of hidden behind the chimney....
Margie..
