We’ve got an ace range of offers from You Garden this week.
First up is Acer palmatum ‘Taylor’ which is You Garden’s number one best-selling acer and perfect if you’re after something truly special.
Acer ‘Taylor’ is an absolute showstopper and as a compact Japanese Maple, it has been bred to impress, and it does just that, with colour-changing leaves across the seasons.
So many of You Garden’s customers agree that it’s a cracking little tree which doesn’t just sit quietly in the background, it brings a splash of colour wherever you plant it. Pots and borders? Either will benefit from a ‘Taylor’ tree.
Foliage starts off bright pink in spring, becoming green with cream edges as the season progresses, reaching a beautiful lime green in autumn.
The team at You Garden are often asked for plants that bring impact without taking up too much space, and this is a corker. ‘Taylor’ stays compact and manageable, without exceeding 2m tall in 10 years. It forms a tidy shape and looks magical against darker evergreens or gravel gardens. Try pairing it with ferns or hostas in a semi-shaded spot.
Plus, it’s not a delicate little plant, despite how it may look! It’s fully hardy and just needs shelter from strong winds and the harshest sun to keep those vibrant leaves looking their best. Like most acers, it likes slightly acidic, free-draining soil – nothing too fancy – and a little mulch in spring will keep it happy for years.
You Garden will supply one 3-litre pot, item code: 510524, priced £22.99, you save £17! (RRP £39.99).
