That's an incredible Acer. I have the same variety but much, much smaller!

It's been a very wet spring in dorset with a big downpour today. Has anyone else's garden seen big growth this year? Our Acers and Hakonechloa Macras have been particularly vigorous.

Looks amazing, I really like the raised bed with the rocks Your Acer Dissectum that looks like an Emerald Lace is so wide!!!!

My vote goes to Portuguese laurel.

It's a great space that has huge potential, very jealous! The first thing I'd decide is what you want from the space? Sunbathing, kickabout for kids, vegetable growing or a space to get lost in. Personally, I use our garden as place to escape, I like to walk around into different 'rooms' and...

K Also, I'm not sure if you're new to the area but Abbotsbury sub tropical gardens is a must if you're after some garden inspiration and to see what's possible in our part of the world

Lovely part of the world, Dorchester has all the amenities of a big town with the charm of a small town fir when you have to do a big shop or fancy a night out. You have all the bones of an incredible garden, very jealous

Our garden is bursting into life now

Looks amazing and won't take much work to look great by summer. Can I ask where you are in Dorset??

It's quite upright but could be one of a few dissectums. Whatever it is it's incredible and would cost you a fortune to buy, very jealous.

That's its incredible! Is it a seiryu or Viridis?

Be great to see it later in the season I bet its a beauty in full leaf

The large specimens go for crazy money, I guess you're paying for the time it takes to get them to that size. There's a specialists Acer nursery near us and they have huge and beautiful acers for well over a 1k I'm sure you'll get the seedling to adulthood but I think I read somewhere that the...

Looks a good sized and established, very jealous! Is it a Bloodgood or Atropurpureum??

Fair enough, I'm not at all familiar with Tamarisks but sound like they the in your conditions. I find acers a bit fussy but once you give them the right conditions and care they are incredible trees/shrubs. I've got over a dozen in the garden that thrive in the dappled shade.

Crying out for a nice upright Acer IMO. Something like an Acer Seiryu which is quite fast growing and sun tollerant

Not only have all my hydrangeas started sprouting now my Acer Katsura is starting to pop.....no frost forecast but far too early this year

Did our mulching before this cold snap, used 1000 litres which was absolutely backbreaking

I have a similar issue with some of my Hydrangeas. I have 4 Serrata Bluebirds that have all got buds that are leafing out already!

This little clump only gets a few hours sun in the morning but still manages to brighten up a shady area beneath our magnolia.
