Acer 'Twombly's Red Sentinel'

Acer palmatum Twombly's Red Sentinel is a deciduous shrub with leaves that vary in colour throughout each season of the year. The foliage emerges showing a bright red colour initially, before turning purple-red or red-green as it matures. Red then returns for Autumn to give it an eye-catching appearance during that period. This plant can be grown as a small tree and will reach an ultimate height of 2.5 - 4m and spread of 1.5 - 2.5m.

Acers can be cared for with relative ease. Plant in an area of partial shade and aim to avoid long periods of exposure to full sunlight. It can tolerate most soil types, requiring you keep it moist, well-drained and ensure watering is kept to a regular, consistent level.
