Acer palmatum 'Garnet' is a popular maple
ideal for small gardens which is grown for its deeply divided, rich
purple-red leaves and dome-like habit. The garnet-coloured leaves hold
their colour well in spring and summer, turn pleasing shades of yellow, crimson or orange in autumn before falling.
The low rounded habit makes Acer palmatum 'Garnet' particularly suitable for growing in a large tub or container and eye-catching when planted as part of a low border or next to a small stream or pond.
The specimen in our gardens has been growing for approx 8 years and has now reached a height of 3ft and a spread of 3 ft. It has a really good display of crimson red autumn colour.

The foliage of this Acer is wonderful!
ReplyDeleteI agree! Very colourful, especially if the autumn weather stays good!
