Visited our local CFA headquarters early this week and they have two lovely Japanese maples at the entrance to the building. They have a lovely green ground cover growing underneath them that looked like moss as I was approaching from the car park.

Upon closer inspection, this is what I found.



No stratification for these and grew quite successfully. Goes to show you can't beat fresh seed!

Haha how awesome! Did you pluck up a couple and put them in your pocket for safe keeping?

Hahaha. Unreal. I have never seen them that thick.

I have a Japanese Maple in our back garden and this is exactly what is underneath it too. I have gently lifted about 20 of these that are now sitting in a seedling tray in my little greenhouse and they seem very happy.

Will post a pic tomorrow.

Yes, can I have the one that is just near the main tree to the left a little. No not that one, the one next to it!!.......

Looks like my front yard but with liquidamber seedlings.

That one is the weed

Interesting.
My front yard is absolutely covered in some sort of seedlings too. I think either Ash or Birch. Maybe it's the consistent wet weather we have had this winter?
