Acer palmatum atropurpureum

I hope mine grows as well as yours by next year,Annie..it's beautiful.did you leave it outside this winter?Mine is still quite small,as I haven't had it long,so I kept bringing into the Conservatory when it was really cold and windy..

It came from Morrisons last year Bloomer and has stayed outside ever since + the patio faces north/east so I would say a lot hardier than people think.....then you have to think about the snow in March, late frosts, high winds..Yes definitely hardy!

Mine was from there too..definitely hardy then..I will leave mine out when winter arrives..oh,spoke too soon..silly me,it is still here !:o((
