Love it but autumn does appear early this year. Which Acer is it Brian? I would like a nice smallish one for a new area I'm doing, thank you

Dawn Not able to help with a name ,bought it at Malvern before I had Jamie so at least 12 years ago certainly very steady growing in the container not sure what it would do if it was in the open ground

Ok Brian, thanks, I was thinking A. Palmatum orange dream but I don't know really. They are brilliant for pots aren't they. how is Jamie? My Bonnie Lab is 13 on Wed, she's ok, a bit stiff in the joints bless, on tablets and still as greedy as ever

Dawn I have orange dream (Grafted)and it gets badly damaged as the season goes on by sun and rain,But strangely i have a second one (same name)given me as a seedling four years ago the spring colour is not so intense but neither does it suffer as much weather damage and they grow more or less side by side.It is difficult to say if it would perform any differently with you.
Pleased to here Bonnie is well amazing how the years go round,Jamie is still as mad as ever does not run for as long these days but neither do I, sleeps more and become more obstinate when when he does not want to do certain things.
he will be 12 in October.

Oh Brian, how time flies, Jamie sounds very fit and well, I think as the dogs get older they try it on more, and get away with it, a bit like old people! Labs are very greedy and we need to keep Bonnie's weight down now so she's on a strict diet and she's so much fitter.
So Orange Dream? Hmmm interesting, I will give one some thought thank you
