Acer 'Pixie' 80cm

Acer 'Pixie' 

Acer palmatum 'Pixie', commonly known as the Pixie Japanese Maple, is a compact deciduous tree admired for its vibrant foliage. In spring, its deeply lobed leaves emerge pink, transitioning to purple-red in summer, and culminating in a bright scarlet display in autumn. This slow-growing tree typically reaches up to 2.5 meters in height and 2 meters in width over 10 to 20 years, making it ideal for small gardens and patio containers. For optimal growth, plant in moist, well-drained, slightly acidic soil in a sheltered spot with partial shade. Its stunning seasonal colour changes and manageable size make it a favorite among garden enthusiasts.
