Julia, is this in leaf today? My two potted Acers are barely showing buds!

One of my Acers IS 'Orange Dream' and is nowhere near as ahead as yours.

Hasn't it done so well. I was looking at Orange Dream yesterday....wondering, shall I ..:))

Yes. I did have a very small one years ago and it didn't grow. But I have a large bag of ericaceous compost crying out for an Acer..haha!

Oh you gotta go for it Janey - can never have too many Acers!

Julia, I used to have some ericaceous feed in powder form but I can’t remember the name. Please could you tell us what you use?

I did take the plunge Julia and bought a small Orange Dream from our local nursery. All potted on and in and out the greenhouse weather dictating.
I must look after my little baby...:))
