Japanese Maple with curling leaves. I have a 3 year-old Japanese Maple which we decided to keep in a container in the house for one more year. We transplanted to a larger container with Miracle Gro potting soil. The leaves are turning brown starting at the outer tips and are curling. It is in a south facing bay window and had been very healthy until now. Can anyone give us some advice? granmudr

Hello;

Welcome also....

Anyway... how much were the roots disturbed? I've
had some plants that would react to a transplant the
same way. This may not be your case, but the plant is
in a new home and is setting new roots,and the rest of
the plant may suffer for a while untill the plant
balances out...

So this is an outdoor environment tree indoors?

That's what I seemed to understand.

Do you water enough to flush salts out that accumulate from fertilizers if you happen to fertilize? Or just enough to moisten and then some?

Japanese maples cannot be grown indoors. Also make sure that you are not overwatering. Make sure your pot is dry between each watering. I would recommend planting your maples under a shade type tree to potect it from the direct Sun after approximately 1 p.m. A company specializing in heat tolerant Japanese maple trees is http://www.pacificcoastmaples.com The website has a FAQ's section on their toolbar to assist you.
