buergerianum
"Trident Maple" A pretty small tree whose grace is enhanced by the small three-lobed leaves. Particularly good autumn colour begins golden-yellow (as in the photo left) before turning orange and scarlet according to conditions. A good hardy Maple tolerant of many less favoured sites. 4m. Actually, the photo shows only the very beginning of the autumn colours and in no way does it justice...note to self...better photo needed! Open-ground plants Only |

ACER campestre
'Silver Celebration' Our own selection, this handsome tree arose as a sport from Acer campestre Carnival here in the garden. The variegation is less vivid, making for a more subtle plant as well as a more adaptable, more tolerant plant. Thus it is much less likely to scorch in sun than its cousin. Choosing a name for a new plant is always a rather traumatic experience. Here the "Silver" element reflects the prettily variegated leaf margin, whilst ‘Celebration" seemed appropriate for many reasons - the new millennium, the children and the pure pleasure of a life with plants.

circinatum 'Monroe' A plant I've lusted after for years, we have a great crop of youngsters this season. Shrubby habit, with deeply incised light green leaves (even more so than A. japonicum 'Aconitifolium'). Predominantly yellow autumn colours may develop some orange. Worthy of a special site. 3m. Fantastic specimens only this season - please enquire |

Fantastic autumn colour too. from £35.00 Specimens also available - please enquire |

ACER
circinatum 'Sunglow'
This has been on my "wanted" list ever since I first saw it photographed! Apricot coloured young growth matures to cream, highlighted by orange veins. The exact colour will depend on light levels, though a shady site is definitely preferable to protect the gorgeous foliage, as well as the bark in winter. Supposedly a little chap, to barely more than 1m, but I think that in this climate it will get taller than that. Make no mistake though, this is not the easiest plant to grow. Specimens only this season - please enquire |
