A small Japanese maple with a graceful habit and beautifully coloured foliage. Mottled variegated deciduous leaves of white and green with striking red branches. Acers are slow growing, reaching their eventual height in ten to twenty years. Ukigumo can grow up to 3m but its slow growth makes it an ideal choice for a smaller garden, where it can also be grown in a container. 2 Litre pot plant supplied.

Acers should be watered on a regular basis, which will be even more important in hot Summers. Although its not necessary, you can prune back or cut dead wood in Spring. Plant in fertile, well drained and moist soil. Acer shrubs prefer sunny or partial shaded areas, and can also be grown in pots. If growing in pots make sure that the pot is large enough to support the shrub and that it also has plenty of drainage holes. Use John Innes compost if planting in pots.
