Liz,
Seeing your photo makes me want to really spend the money this year and buy a Weeping Japanese maple. For the last few years I have wanted one..but am too afraid to take the risk as they are quite expensive, and not very hardy.
I do have an upright Bloodgood Japanese Maple I bought 3 years ago. I cover it with burlap in the winter. So far so good.

Your lower garden photo is just lovely..I notice you are beside water..lucky you.
Cheers,
Carol
