When does a Japanese Maple produce seeds?

Answer by  harper66 (23)

Only very mature trees produce seeds and this usually occurs in the fall. Not all Japanese Maples will produce seeds. Also, not all seeds will produce the same type of tree. If your tree is one of those, you can still propogate the tree by using cuttings from the tree.
