4. Japanese Maple

The Japanese Maple has about 1,000 variations. Therefore, maybe there is a Japanese Maple near your area, but you don't realize it. These trees grow about 2 feet a year once planted. 

It's not easy to find their location. These trees are okay in the shade, but they can't tolerate too hot and humid climates. Their lifespan is also impacted by poor soil, standing water, drought, improper planting, and disease.
