Just planted 2005
Acer palmatum
'Shindeshojo'
Zone 6
(Europe 7)
Another new addition for me this year (2005) This is a most beautiful shrub like plant with an astonishing bright pink leaf colour in Spring
It is supposed to turn a reddish green in Summer
These pictures show the different colours of this plant at varying times of the year
REMEMBER that all Japanese Maples prefer a slightly acid well drained soil with a constant moisture content.
