Do not allow the soil to dry completely or be overly saturated. Japanese Maples should be watered often enough to keep the soil moist. Do not allow the mulch to touch the trunk as this increases the chances of pests and disease. Mulching will keep the roots moist and protect them from extreme temperatures in winter. However, they will adapt to a variety of soils.
Japanese Maples prefer soil that is well-drained, but moist, neutral to slightly acidic, and nutrient rich.
