ACER palmatum 'Taiyo nishiki'
A pretty Japanese cultivar that is quite different to any of our others. The deeply lobed leaves are daintily margined with creamy-yellow to pink. Upright in habit but best in shade. 3m. This one can be prone to reversion (somehow surprisingly, it was a sport from 'Asahizuru' - so the reversion is not unattractive...it's just not what it's meant to be!)

Specimens only this season - please ask for price and size details.

ACER palmatum 'Tamahime'
I would be tempted to refer to this one as a small grower although eventually it could make 4m in height. The problem is the word eventually, since in the case of Acers, it can refer to most of 100 years hence. At least I won't be here to sympathise with your dilemma. Indeed, the more pressing problem with Acers is the question of planting for the right size in 10 years time. Green leaves casually layered give a very Japanese feel to this one.
From £28.00
Fantastic Specimens also available - please ask for price and size details.

ACER palmatum 'Tana' 
A real beauty! The leaves are large and when young have a conspicuous purple tip. Golden yellow and red autumn colours. Upright in habit to 4m.

Very limited numbers this season - please ask for price and size details.

ACER palmatum 'Taro yama'
A delightful small-growing cultivar from Japan which is deceptively vigorous when young. The young growth is an attractive yellow-orange with deep pink margins, changing to light green. 2-3m.

Specimens only this year - please ask for price and size details.

ACER palmatum 'Tiger Rose'
Another wonderful introduction from Oregon. A chance seedling from 'Azuma murasaki', rose-pink suffuses the otherwise light green spring foliage, before maturing to cream. 2m by a little less, with such a graceful, slightly pendulous habit.

Specimens only this season - please ask for price and size details.

ACER palmatum 'Tiny Tim' 
A delightful dwarf which we acquired from Australia. Very much a classic palmatum in leaf shape and colour, it is pleasantly vigorous when young. Excellent orange autumn colours. 1-2m

Specimens only this season - please ask for price and size details.

NEW ACER palmatum 'Tobiosho'

Very limited numbers this season - please ask for price and size details.

ACER palmatum 'Trompenburg' 
Introduced by the Rotterdam Arboretum of the same name, the leaves of this striking purple palmatum look shiny with the leaf margins rolled down almost forming a tube. Scarlet autumn colour. Strong growing and often angular when young. 4-5m 

Fantastic Specimens only this season - please ask for price and size details.

ACER palmatum 'Tsuchigomo'
Attractive and compact, yet growing to 3m. Rusty red leaves quickly turn green with crimson and red tints in autumn. The distinctive leaves have long lobes, tapering to sharp points.
Very limited numbers this season - please ask for price and size details.

NEW ACER palmatum 'Tsukasa Silhouette'

Specimens only this season - please ask for price and size details.

ACER palmatum 'Tsuma gaki'
These looked absolutely fabulous this summer! The larger than normal leaves droop daintily as they unfold on this stiffly bushy plant. They are a striking yellow-green with distinct red tips. 2m

Open-ground Specimens only this season - please ask for price and size details.

NEW ACER palmatum 'Twombley's Red Sentinel'
