Why Japanese Maples Stand Out
Strong Color Impact Deep reds, purples, and seasonal color changes create contrast and draw attention.
Unique Forms From upright trees to cascading weeping varieties, each adds structure and movement.
Perfect Focal Trees Ideal for entryways, patios, and front yards where a single tree needs to stand out.
Our Japanese maples are selected for cold hardiness and structure. We focus on varieties that perform in New England, not just look good in a catalog.

The two gentlemen that did the arborvitae installation were absolutely excellent. They listened to exactly what we wanted, mapped out the spots, and worked quickly and thoroughly to get it done. Outstanding work!
Top notch service and product quality. I didn’t know what to expect seeing the ads on Facebook, so I went to the greenhouse. They had a wonderful variety of products and a very helpful staff. The delivery and installers were fast, neat and friendly. Pro Growers will be me go to for now on!
I was very happy with my experience! Pro Growers are not only a quality outfit, but they have the best prices hands down!
