Acer palmatum

Little flower buds on the jap map this year 🇯🇵 🗺 Not the easiest to photo 🤓 #acer #acerpalmatum #acer

Snap! I have the purple one so the flowers blend in. Yours may a lovely contrast 🤗

It's the first time its flowered, since I bought it as a non specific bareroot sapling from Wilkos about 4 years ago @susieg. My twig's getting all grown up! 😀 Yours sounds nice too 👍🏻 there was me thinking mine was totally boring 😊 Next time I'm getting a grafted tree on a more vigorous rootstock, this one is super slow growing and life is short!

It's the jap map!

I love acers so many varieties and colours :)

Me too! I don't think the ubiquitous acer will ever be passé.

Totally agree :)

@brightcolours no I'm not bothered, I was just laughing cos I was going to hit send to tag and you beat me to the button :D Sorry i always forget to tag, im new to hashtagging ;) Wish I could do emojis on this phone!

Oh, phew... Hashtags can be fun!! But mainly tags are useful when doing a search for something, including admin who use them at times to compile posts/collages.
