If you love red-toned foliage, you can’t do much better than Acer palmatum ‘Shaina’. A sport of the better-known Acer ‘Bloodgood’, it’s distinctive from ‘Bloodgood’ in the ferocity of its spring foliage colour plus its more compact size. Deeply cut leaves with long, slender lobes emerge a brilliant red, delivering exceptional spring impact. As they mature, the leaves tone down to deep claret, before flaming bright crimson again in the autumn. Its compact size makes it a perfect specimen tree for small gardens or containers. Mature height: 250cm (98in). Spread: 300cm (118in).

Plant height and spread is seasonal therefore we list by pot size rather than a defined plant size. The height and spread of the plant delivered will vary depending on the season, meaning arrival images are an indication only.

Grow Acers in any moist, fertile, well drained soil in sun or dappled shade. It's important to give plants shelter from strong winds which can scorch the leaves.
Water regularly throughout the growing season until acer trees are well established. Protect plants from strong winds. Acers require little pruning other than to maintain their shape. Lightly trim stems if necessary from late autumn to midwinter.
