Sorry guys... I'm so familiar with sweet gums they make me want to go insane... :barnie I spent WAY to many hours as a kid raking gum balls... And stepping on gum balls in bare feet as a kid... and having painful gum ball wars with my brother... haha! No gum balls for me. My dad eventually had...

Here's my Crimson Queen Japanese Maple... I planted her this year and I think she's doing really well! You like that blue hose in the back that needs to be moved, don't you! I couldn't plant something like this in the back though. It's full sun back there...

I'm just in 7b according to the USDA map. I have a Crimson Queen Japanese Maple planted in the front of my house and she's georgous! I'll have to post a pic! She's a baby... ha! But, she's doing really well where I planted her. I'm not sure how a Japanese Maple would do in my back yard. It's...
