Young Acer Orange Dream

So happy that you went for it Janey ... of course it will thrive, it's in good hands! x

Haha Sheila. You have a lovely one too, How old is yours now? x

Goodness, I had it at the previous house so it must be 5 or 6 years old at least. x

I had this in Scotland Jane.. a fast grower. I loved it.

Julia, my Jordan also in bud, but quite a bit bigger than last year … must like rain!

Sheila, good you brought it with you and it's looking lovely. x

Hi Karen, pleased it's a fast grower, I'm quite chuffed with it..:)

Yes, it's a very nice shape too Julia. My Jordan is in leaf, but with the cold rain they're not fully open yet.

I inherited an Orange Dream. It's enormous! But it has been a round for a few years. It's spring colouring is attractive.

It is going to look lovely when it starts to get bigger Janey.

Pretty form to it too, Janey. I've Orange Dream, it's planted out in the ground. Does fabulously well, thankfully!!!

Lovely to have Acers in the garden. I have three in the flower beds that I prune some of the straggly growth off in the summer, and take off any dead growth in the winter. I have a bonsai one, and two in pots. They are very adaptable and seem to grow anywhere.

Thanks everyone for the positive comments, it seems to be Acer weather still too!
