Garnet is a really eye-catching, because of its almost glowing red foliage. On opening the leaves are a bright red colour, slowly deepening until they change to the beautiful garnet colour, hence its name. Along with other Japanese maples, this small tree could form part of a Japanese themed garden. Alternatively, keep this tree in a large container and is ideal for a very small patio or terraced garden as it only grows to 1.8m (6ft).
This tree is supplied at a height of 0.3m-0.6m in a 7.5 Litre container, which means that the tree can be planted any time of the year and with better results than either bare-root or rootballed trees.
Message card included at no additional cost if required. Just add the information required on the card at checkout.
Ornamental Tree Topping
All ornamental trees (not vines) are topped at 1.3 metres to encourage a natural ornamental tree shape with obvious exceptions e.g. patio sizes.This means that your tree was pruned during the growing process and then allowed to grow to the size it is now supplied at.

Ornamental Tree Roots In The Shade e.g. Behind A Fence
It is more important that that foliage (posh term for leaves) receives the sunlight than the roots. So if the canopy of your ornamental tree can sunbathe but the bottom of your tree thinks there has been a nuclear winter then that is ok. You might want to ensure you have good drainage as water and no sun is the start of algae and other such issues.
Do I Need To Stake My Ornamental Tree?
9 out of 10 times the answer will be no, especially if under 200cm tall. However our article on Tree Staking should help guide you.
