30+Ghost Purple MapleTree to Plant Outdoor-Rare Acer Palmatum Tree Hardy Non-GMO Heirloom Plant Decor Garden Home

Maybe it’s my fault, didn’t read reviews, maybe I was naive. But genuinely I was expecting a tree. Small yes, but a tree nonetheless. It is just the seeds seeds that take up to 120 days to germinate. I’m sure it didn’t say seeds in the ad. Not overly happy or impressed. Especially at the price for seeds. 🤷‍♂️

I was unaware that I was buying seeds not a plant. I cannot find the word seed anywhere in the description! I am now returning the seeds. The seeds take 120 days to germinate and grow about 15cm / 6inches a year. Buyers beware!

Just seeds of god knows what.

It is not a tree it's seeds. No information given on how to grow or what they are too. Took forever to arrive. Very disappointing

It was seeds and they are not growing . I would not have bothered if I had know it was seed and

Was advertised repeatedly as a TREE, was NOT A TREE. It was SEEDS!!!!!! So disappointed

Was not pleased I received a packet of seeds I was dissapointed

A handful of tiny seeds, not what I was expecting

Sad I got a special growing kit but not 1 sprouted

Just got my seeds, lots of complaints on here but you do need to make sure to plant as I list, they can take up to 2 years to germinate. Be patient with these. From google Ghost Maple (likely referring to white/variegated Japanese Maple cultivars) seeds require a 60–120 day cold stratification period (33–41ºF) to germinate, simulating winter. Soak seeds in warm water for 24 hours, then store in moist, breathable media (like coco peat) inside the refrigerator before planting in well-draining soil in spring. YouTube YouTube +4 Key Germination Steps: Collection: Collect samaras (winged seeds) in late fall. Pre-treatment: Soak seeds in warm water for 24 hours. Adding 1 tsp of hydrogen peroxide per gallon can help break down the hard shell. Cold Stratification: Place seeds in a baggie or container with moist peat moss, sand, or paper towels. Store in the refrigerator for 60–120 days. Planting: Sow seeds in well-draining, high-quality potting mix in early spring. Environment: Keep soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Germination Time: Seeds may sprout over several weeks; some may not germinate until the second year, which is common with Japanese maples

Nothing grew, seeds looked old and dried up.

Wow can’t believe the color and can’t wait to see it bloom …

Very disappointed, not one seed opened up tried multiple ways. I understand they take a long time it’s been more than the amount of time. At least one of them should’ve opened up.
