MAPLE MAGIC

Whether our gardens be small or large, many of us have the pleasure of sharing them with acers. My neighbour has at least six and I have two in my garden. One was rescued from a skip, so I come over all ‘proud parent’ at this time of year when the temperatures drop and the colour begins to creep into the leaves. It is only a brief moment but still glorious.

Acer palmatum

Lots of different varieties available. Will grow in containers but need more water than you would expect! H x S 6m x 6m
