Very nice recreation!
So the graft is basically the roots and partial trunk of a regular Japanese maple (acer palmatum) typically. This is because the interesting cultivars (like Crimson Queen and most other popular varieties) are hard to grow from their own rootstocks. The grafting makes it possible for most people to be able to grow different Japanese maples because the tree now has both a rootstock that is fairly quick growing/ easy to establish, and a cool, interesting ornamental tree up top.
However, the rootstock grows so well that it will send sprouts and shoots fairly frequently. If they aren’t removed, those will eventually outgrow the grafted tree. This in turn will deprive the original tree of nutrients/sunlight until it dies off and you’re left with just a regular green or red seedling Japanese maple.
Weeping Japanese Maples like Crimson Queen are almost always grafted.

“We’re playin cops for real, we’re playin cops for pay”!
Had to scroll way too far down to get to the real answer here!
To add, as others have said as well, those gardenias could get 6+ feet. Just because there’s not enough room doesn’t mean that the plant will stay small and tolerate it. If the plant doesn’t get the space it needs you may have some dieback of branches that grow into the fence. I would have suggested liriope or mondo grass (if there’s some shade).
Underwatered, overwatering would cause yellowing of the leaves and eventually browning of the undergrowth causing it to shed
Those bala sharks get huge, you need a much bigger tank for those. Not to mention the other fish anyway.
Verticillium wilt has been ravaging redbuds, dogwoods and Japanese maples in the nursery I work. Soil borne fungal disease with no cure, NCNLA just had a seminar on it recently because it’s becoming such an issue in the industry. That and the dreaded ambrosia beetle have been wiping out mature trees by the droves.
Any MaBeeta fans out there?
Looks like midge. It’s an insect that causes the leaves to curl and eventually die off like that.
A systemic insecticide would be the most effective treatment especially if it’s a mature tree.
Pansies and violas are pretty cold hardy. They tend to die out in the warmer months where I’m from, rather than the colder months like most annuals.
I live next to the highway and one of these trucks woke my son up last night at 10 PM. I just don’t understand the appeal of being loud af all the time. I guess attention is attention either way.
“Haha ok guys, I haven’t done anything THAT illegal”
Witnessing Dan’s bass drum get turned up to the max is transcending
I’ve seen hack jobs a lot worse than this especially ones done by homeowners. The Formosa azaleas pictured would get a lot larger than this if they let them go, so they trim them substantially in the fall for size control.
You can prune a plant whenever it is convenient if you’re willing to sacrifice blooms, and that’s what they did. At least the shrub is dense without airspace underneath exposing the leggy branching, because that’s when it actually looks bad. This does not look that bad as a nurseryman myself.
Some people get angry when they see redditors “self promoting” on the app. Just ignore them
Deer teeth will make a pretty clean cut like the ones pictured.
Is someone clipping my lilies?
