Flowering Maple • Beauty: Bell-like hanging colorful flowers make the plant very attractive and decorative. • Uses: An ornamental plant suitable for cultivation in gardens, balconies and tubs. • Specialties: Blooms for a long time and easily adds a touch of colorful beauty to any space.

**Watering:** Water deeply but infrequently, allowing the top inch of soil to dry out completely between waterings. Overwatering can lead to root rot. **Lighting:** Prefers full sun for optimal blooming, though it tolerates partial shade. **Pruning:** Prune back old or dead canes in late winter/early spring to maintain shape and encourage new growth. Deadheading spent flowers promotes continuous blooming.

### Potting & Planting Instructions for Flowering Maple 1. **Container Selection**: Choose a terracotta, ceramic, or nursery pot with generous drainage holes at the base. 2. **Soil Mix Recipe**: Use Well-draining garden soil enriched with 30% organic vermicompost. Adding a layer of coarse gravel or leca at the bottom enhances oxygenation. 3. **Planting Depth**: Position the plant at the exact same root collar depth as in its nursery container. Avoid burying stems too deep. 4. **Initial Settling**: After potting, water thoroughly until water drains freely, then place in bright indirect light for 3–5 days to acclimatize before moving to full sun.

Harvest mature stems/leaves as needed using clean sterilized pruning shears.

Pairs wonderfully with drought-tolerant companion plants and complementary flowering plants varieties.
