Acer 'Orange Dream'

This is now ten years old and was a supermarket buy as a small plant.

It's doing well, Shirley. Have you ever potted it on? We started to take ours out of the g'house this morning to discover some have mealybugs and scale insects. Treating them is not what we planned on doing today!

Ange, this Acer was left outdoors through Winter, sheltered up against a fence and has fared well, phew! It could probably do with going up a pot size though. What a shame about the mealybugs and scale insects ... not what you needed to see ... :o(

Julia, it is now positioned where we can see it from both the patio and the little sunhouse.

Klahanie, now that the patio has been cleaned I am able to put pots of plants back, but this Acer seems better suited to the back of the garden.
