Acers are small, exquisite garden trees and shrubs that are perfect for planting in the garden or in containers. They are renowned for their attractive coloured foliage, often providing autumn hues including some spectacular reds and yellows. Others have red and green winged seeds that appear in summer and autumn. Many have a delicate appearance and all provide eye-catching detail in any garden. They thrive in rich, moist and well-drained soil and prefer a sheltered spot. At TENDERCARE there are between 20 and 30 varieties and more than 300 specimens at any one time, from one metre to over three metres tall.
