    Such wonderful condition D. You have looked after it extremely well in this difficult Summer.

    Could be better D. This Summer has taken it's toll rather badly on my maples I'm afraid. Brown crispy leaves everywhere. Think I'm going to have a lot of fatalities.
    But compared to the energy and cost of living crisis, it's nothing really.

    I hear ya D. Things are pretty rough everywhere seems like. I hope there arent many fatalities. I've had a few myself. I'm really impressed with a lot of mine. I'm trying to keep them as happy as possible. Praying I get ok fall color.

    Kuro Hime was dug up and moved to new location this spring, looks like it took the transplant well.

    Very cool little tree, I think it looks better here for color than the more open sunny area. The more sun you give the more muddy red it looks. I like it more shaded for color since you get more color gradients. I think it's worth investing in finding, very vigorous too. A Mr. Maple score!
