Acer palmatum Dissectum

She is gorgeous Carole, all the red shades seem early this year too. Love those stunning leaves I treated myself to a lovely bright green one, turning orange, should be beautiful in a few years time.....:))

That is so pretty,Carole..a shame it has to lose that lovely foliage ...

What a delicious colour. It is a shame it doesn't stay like that, but Acers are beautiful whatever the colour.

Thanks Janey, Sandra and Dwllis been out in the garden this morning and its already starting to shed its leaves!

That's a stunner, Carole ... I hope you enjoy it for a while longer .....

Just noticed this Carole...isn't it beautiful? although probably not looking its best now the weather's turned. Such a pity they don't last longer isn't it?

Thanks Shirley, and Waddy, lots of leaves have fallen today, but pleased I got a picture before they did ;0)
Waddy will email you later;0)

What a shame the leaves have to fall off, we have a large acer tree in the garden, the top of it is almost bare, still plenty to fall tho.Hope you enjoyed your luncheon outing on Friday Carole lol:)

What a beauty Carole such a fabulous colour , I went round my neighbours the other day he has one like this in a big pot , a couple of days later I went round expecting to see the same wonderful sight only to find that every single leaf had gone :o(

I know the feeling Amy here one minute gone the next just like my Acer ;0))

What would we do all winter if we had not got our photos. I am atempting to paint a picture of an acer, wonderful colour, lifts my spirits.

Thanks LD I would love to see a picture of your painting when its finished, Im into painting myself when the mood takes me, not an easy subject youve chosen ;0)
