Palmatum showing its Autumn colours.

And it's just beautiful Julia..

Gorgeous colour, Julia! One of mine is starting to put on its autumn colour too.
Love the little stand with potted succulents….great idea!

It matches your brickwork a treat. Obviously the Artist's eye!

Wow!

I have one in the front garden which is a similar colour to yours Julia! I love acers but there are not many places I can put them so that they are out the morning sun and easterly winds.
