    A lovely specimen, very satisfied with the purchase
  

*by B***V on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 27 April 2023*

Purchased in October, 2022. Delivery was one day early, product arrived undamaged. I expected little to no foliage, given the deciduous nature of the tree. Repotted in the following days with ericaceous compost (japanese maples do best in acidic soil). Kept it outside during the winter and it did just fine. In April, when the buds started to open, I fertilized it with Vitax Acer Feed (organic) - best time to fertilize is at the start of the growing season. The young leaves are very tender and the tree needs to be in a sheltered position. If it gets cold (<5 C°), bring the tree inside, as the leaves might get damaged otherwise. The deep red colour of the foliage is only achieved if the tree is in a sunny position (leaves remain green otherwise). Water by a small amount everytime the top soil layer gets dry (this will prevent leaves with dried tips). With adequate care, the tree will reward you with its beauty!

### ⭐ 1.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Very small
  

*by A***E on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 9 November 2023*

Exceedingly disappointing, very small only 3-4 inches high and extremely weedy.I think it will die.
