Perfect for both new and established plants, blooming Fast Acer Feed is an organic granular feed combining the nutrients essential for the health growth of Japanese Maples. Potted trees need more watering - make sure the soil doesn’t dry out, especially in the summer months.

That looks like a small pot for the size of the specimen and no amount of liquid feed will compensate for roots that get too warm in a small pot.The Vitax Acer Japanese Maple Feed is made up of 3 major plant foods, nitrogen, phosphate and potash, all 3 of these with natural magnesium and trace elements to give natural and healthy leaf growth. Vitax Organic Acer Feed contains the three major plant foods - nitrogen (N), phosphate P phosphorus) and potash (K potassium), that make up NPK, together with natural Magnesium (Mg) and trace elements to encourage healthy leaf growth and vibrant colours. In pots : Acer feed can be mixed with compost when repotting or worked into the surface of existing pots as an annual top-dressing.

For best results, apply during planting to get new plants off to the best possible start and reapply as a top dressing in spring.

Variegated Acers (those with multicoloured leaves including Shirazz and Drummondii) are particularly vulnerable to leaf scorch and need to be grown out of the sun. If it’s in a pot you can easily solve the problem by moving it somewhere with a better balance of light and shade (not too bright, not too dark). Vitax Acer Feed contains the three major plant foods - nitrogen, phosphate and potash, together with added natural magnesium and trace elements to encourage healthy leaf growth and vibrant colours.In the garden: Apply Acer Feed as a spring top-dressing at a rate of 120g/m2 beneath the spread of the branches. The solution to both pests is removing them by hand and squashing them, or hosing them off the branches if the hosepipe ban has ended by then!

If Acers could choose their soil, they’d pick a slightly sandy, acidic type but they’ll grow well anywhere as long as it's moist and well drained. Mulch around the top of the pot to keep the soil moist and position your potted tree in a sheltered spot away from strong winds (near a hedge is ideal). Another option is a slow release fertiliser put in the soil at the start of spring and left alone for the season.
