April Spotlight On Acer palmatum

Acers have many attractive values that carry through the seasons; spring foliage, colourful stems on certain options and of course, their fiery autumn foliage.   


Where to Grow 


Acer palmatum are best in partial or dappled shade in a spot out of the wind.  Slightly acidic moist but well drained soil.  Mulch each autumn and if in a container, repot every three years.  No pruning needed except for removal of dead wood in the dormant season.
