Acer Palmatum 

Taylor

Taylor has a unique and spectacular foliage display throughout the growing season. The spring leaves are a very bright pink-red with occasional blotches of dark and light green, gradually becoming light pink and faintly tinged light green by mid-June. 
The green becomes darker as the summer progresses. In mid-summer there is a second flush of bright pink which lasts all summer. In the autumn the colour changes slightly to the very bright pink-red. The small 5 lobed leaves are deeply divided almost to the leaf base. Each narrow lobe is almost strap-like, long oblong ovate with a tail-like tip.The margins are slightly rolled under and are mostly un-toothed except for a few sharp hooked teeth near the tip. The bright red leaf stalks are short and slender. Taylor needs a semi-shade location and must not dry out or become water logged. If cared for it will provide stunning colour to any garden. This unusual cultivar forms a low spreading bush, estimated to to eventually reach up to 2.5 mtrs (8ft) . Created by Dick Van der Maat and named after his niece it won many prizes at Chelsea Flower Show when introduced.
