Thompson and Morgan Acer Conspicuum Red Flamingo Potted Plant 3L

The Acer Conspicuum 'Red Flamingo' brings a unique, year-round interest to any garden. This slow-growing Acer can be trained as either a multi-stemmed shrub or a small tree, making it a versatile choice for diverse garden designs, and thrives as a containerised specimen, ideal for patios and smaller spaces. During winter, its bright red stems mature into branches with white striations, capturing attention and adding vibrant colour to the landscape. In spring, the young leaves emerge with a pink flush, gradually transforming into a striking marbling of green, pink, and cream, creating a captivating display. Given 10-20 years, expect an impressive height and spread of 4m x 6m (13ft x 20ft), providing long-lasting beauty and structure to your outdoor space.
Grow in sun or dappled shade, sheltering from strong winds to prevent leaf scorch. Water regularly during the growing season until established, and fertilise annually with a balanced, slow-release fertiliser, ensuring the soil remains moist but well-drained.
