I don't have anything on your list but I have some shade plants? Helabores---blooms a pastel pink/green Miniture hosta--it's Caroline's gold I believe. Very small leaves...a border plant and DOES like more sun than most hosta. King Humbert Cana lily. Creeping Jenny. Orange day lily Can root a hydrangea for you.. Can root cuttings from my jasmine vines. (Rooting these would take a few weeks for an plant to survive mailing). I have autum joy sedum that's great for full sun LOTS of ivy. 5-6 diff types. Also have cast iron plant. I would LOVE a jap maple. We moved into 3 acres and I'm needing some nice pretty trees. Let me know?

Hmmm...where to start. First of all, there are nearly a thousand different cultivars of Japanese maples. About a third (or maybe more) of them have red leaves at least a portion of the year. Secondly, japanese red maple would be a misleading name since a red maple is a native maple to the US that has green leaves and red flowers. Red japanese maple would make more sense. So, "Japanese red maple" could refer to one of hundreds of cultivars that have been reproduced by grafting, or it could be a red seedling that shows good red characteristics. This would mean that 'red select' is a specific cultivar of a red japanese maple. You must also consider whether or not it is a weeping red dissectum (fine lacy leaves) or an upright palmatum (star shaped leaves). 'Red select' is one of many red dissectum cultivars (lacy and weeping). I think 'red select' is a seedling from 'inaba shidare' (guys I know Vertrees claims that they are one in the same, but I have convincing information that says otherwise). They are similar, but some claim there are distinct differences (and by distinct I mean practically with a magnifying glass). Other similar common cultivars include 'crimson queen', 'tamukeyama', 'garnet', and the newer 'red dragon'. A couple of good red upright cultivars include 'bloodgood' and 'fireglow'. Search these names and this should shed some light on what the differences are.
