Description
Also known as a snake bark maple, the Japanese maple Acer palmatum 'Phoenix' is a dazzling ornamental tree, noted for its bright young red stems. In winter, the vivid red shoots have been likened to the red-stemmed dogwoods, which are renowned for their amazing seasonal colour, and the bark on older stems is striped silvery white, which accentuates their red colouring even further. The perfect choice for any garden needing some vibrant colour, 'Phoenix' is definitely one of the most striking of the snake bark maples, and its natural vigour makes it easy to grow and reliable. With a kaleidoscope of colour through the year, new leaves emerge tinted pink and develop a green-veined middle before turning a golden-yellow in the autumn. In addition, its tiny yellow flowers are followed by winged, sycamore-like fruits in early summer. Perfect for planting in a pot and displaying on your patio or decking area, this stunning acer will look exceptional in this 'Pinecone' round planter. Hand-finished in gold paint, using a brand-new technique, it will add a touch of class to your garden. Designed with raised drainage holes and water reservoirs to allow your plants to thrive. It has been made from heavy-duty, injection moulded plastic, they're tough & durable, and also frost & UV resistant, so they'll withstand the worst of our British weather too. This planter represents great value, especially when compared to normal prices for metallic pots.
