Slow-growing and suitable for smaller gardens
In sub-tropical growing zones such as Brisbane, it is advisable to avoid planting in any position where the tree will be subjected to hot afternoon sun.
Notes from the plant tag:
Highly prized as garden specimen trees for their grace and elegance, their brilliantly coloured autumn leaves, attractive bark and fresh, new spring growth. Acers take on a graceful shape as they mature.
Suited to garden beds or in containers on patios where the autumn colour may be best appreciated. May also be grown as a bonsai plant.
Prefers a cool, sheltered, partly shaded position in moist, well drained soil. Protect from afternoon sun. Water regularly after planting until established. Fertilise in late winter with a complete fertiliser. Pruning is not usually required.
