Took a few snaps of some of our acers..the mild weather has definitely encouraged them to open up beautifully. The last image of the small, albeit oldest of our acers, dissectum, has pretty little flowers all over it.

juvenile foliage always is pretty. Even the large field maples and sycamores look pretty as they open.

Thanks Eileen! Have to agree, all the lush new growth and leaves are very attractive.

Lovely pictures Kate. Acers are so dainty and pretty - wish they would grow here but its too windy. The last photo was very interesting - we see many Acers on Goy but never seen one flowering before.

Sorry, Paul, I missed your mention of losing one to the frost! What a real shame..they are expensive trees arenโ€™t they. Pleased your other acers are thriving though!
