Feature tree

12 years ago

I absolutely love this garden, it's my dream to have one like this and this size.. Could I pls ask what the feature tree is on the right up the back in the planter box? It's beautiful. Hopefully it's one I can plant over here in Perth

Hi holly_crystel, it is a Japanese Maple (Acer palmatum). There are a number of different cultivars available too. In Perth you will need to keep it moist and plant it in a cooler shaded position to protect it particularly from the hot western sun in the afternoon.

Thank you for answering my question. I must really love that tree as it's the 3rd time iv asked on different pics and they have all been that type lol the only shaded position I have I don't think will quite fit it :( our Perth sun is ridiculous, I'm finding that I can't plant any of the trees I love.

Wondering if we could use the image (slightly cropped and credited to you, of course) as a beautiful example of glass fencing for a pool? We're doing a blog article on different kinds of protective barriers for children.
