Another Acer finally finding a home in the ground!
Comments on this photo
I absolutely love this chartreuse-tinged golden leaves of this maple. It is on my list for long time but it is hard to get around here in smaller size....and the larger size is not affordable.

Bik, my acer aureum is now a lot taller than me, but it's been growing in the ground for about 12 years, and I had it in a pot for a few years before then. I think this one is reasonably slow growing, which is why it's very expensive at a larger size.
These leaves look wonderful against the pretty flowers!

Yes, very slow growing. I was told that it probably won't reach 5ft in 10 years. Thanks for confirming Louisa.
Klahanie, this little one was not so cheap either! I've had it 3 years. It was on the shady side of the garden but it never looked well. It's been in a pot on the sunny side for the past 2 and it's enjoying it.
