They were nothing like Capel Manor though. That acer is a stunner.

I adore Sango-kaku, every time I make a choice about something to plant in my back garden I block other options, and I fear I may have prevented myself from planting a second acer, one that turns yellow, by opting for plum trees. But yjey are slow growing, so who knows, I might manage it! I know I can't have a beech walk, but wow, what a gorgeous feature, pleached trees are wonderful living sculpture. And what a fabulous location to learn your way around so many plants. <br />PS I have just had a thought about where an acer might fit despite the plum trees, after all, an acer is far ore exciting than a fuchsia that doesn't owe me anything because I inherited dozens of them...Janet/Plantaliscioushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15605580157193047780noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8983898767534428385.post-11240703612478893292013-11-18T09:36:25.391+00:002013-11-18T09:36:25.391+00:00Autumn colour is wonderful isn't it?

I've never grown them but we were looking at some in the garden centre earlier on this month so I can see a purchase in the future. Regarding my comment on your last post, the variety of rhubarb I've planted is Stockbridge Arrow. A local nursery was closing down in August 2012 and all the plants were reduced to half price so I bought it then. It's been kept in the container until this year when I eventually got it planted out at the allotment, so I'm hoping I'll get a few stems from it next year. I won't take too many just yet for fear of weakening the plant.Johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17436932004631816039noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8983898767534428385.post-19642760664628325212013-11-17T11:31:39.378+00:002013-11-17T11:31:39.378+00:00What wonderful colours Capels trees have, it must ...What wonderful colours Capels trees have, it must be a delight to walk through their grounds. My Acer Sango-kaku is a much paler yellow than the one you have shown us, in fact it is now a pale buttery yellow, it seems to fade as the days go by. It is in the shade of a big bay bush so can't be fading in the sunshine.
