Veitch Nurseries
Nikko maple was first introduced to cultivation in 1881, when seeds were imported by the Veitch Nurseries in England, after they were discovered by Charles Maries in the forests of Hokkaidō. It is rarely seen in cultivation outside of arboreta. The largest specimens in England are up to tall and trunk diameter. In the United States, a mature specimen may be seen at Arnold Arboretum in Boston, Massachusetts.
