2 2 One Year Grafted & Names Varieties One the following pages are the varieties we offer as young plants. At the nursery we have the considerable numbers of larger plants up to eight feet, although not all varieties in the larger size. The size of the one year grafts when dispatched vary form 6 to 18 inches depending on variety. Some varieties will attain 30 inches in the first year. Below is the key to the codes after each variety name: 1 = 2-3 2 = 3-7 3 = 7-13 4 = 13-20 5 = 20-30 Mature height can seem alarming in some of the above, but it must be remembered that the maple is a fairly long lived tree which will grow quicker in the early years, and then slowly reach the mature height.

3 As a guide you could assume that the tree will attain about half of the first figure in ten years.
