Acer 'Orange Dream'

Best time to buy this time of the year, its a real bargain;0)

well worth it whatever the price!

That looks great nestled in with those Heuchera!

Thanks all. It was reduced from £25 to £12.50 so I was well pleased.
Scottish it is only stood among the Heuchera at the moment while I am trying to decide where to put it ! It was an impulse buy you see, so now I have to find a home. I must say, it would probably look good there, not sure how it would survive the winter there as it is a bit damp that side of the garden. Tempted to leave it in the pot this year and give it some protection in cold greenhouse. Any advice would be welcome.

my orange dream has been outside for 2 years, its now 5 foot high, not very sunny but fairly well protected

Thanks Sticki, I have lost several over the wintertime before so am a little worried about leaving it out.

mine might have been a bit bigger than that when i first had it? katarina and kasy have acer orange dream too.

Very nice,Cinders..I love the different colours of foliage..a great bargain too :o)

Well I kept saying I wouldnt get another one, Sandra, but found I still had a couple of vouchers left from pressies and couldnt find anything else I really wanted. Now that I've got it I am very pleased. I keep saying I am not buying any more plants, but .......... sigh !

..and pigs might fly ! :o))

Ha Ha !

Great find! Love Acers and I've seen this one a few times but resisted......so far!

You know you will get one don't you. there is this special offer on at the garden centres at the moment Karen. Quick !

lol....we'll see Cinders, we'll see!

I've found that this one isn't so fussy as some of my other 'expensive' ones!! I've chosen to keep Orange Dream in a pot as it can get rather large.
Good luck with whatever you decide to do :)

Thank you! I have Red Wine in a pot and it has got very big this year, but it will be staying in the pot. It's very beautiful. My other potted ones don't seem to be growing nearly so fast. I suppose Red Wine should really be in the ground, but there you go....it's staying in the pot!

Thanks Scottish, thats interesting. I might have to buy a nice pot for it I think.
