ACER PALM. EXTRAVAGANZA (PBR)

Acer palmatum ‘Extravaganza’ (PBR) is a Japanese maple selected for its graceful habit and refined seasonal display. Like most Japanese maples, it thrives in a sheltered spot with sun or light shade and prefers fertile, moist but well-drained, slightly acidic soil. Ideal as a focal point in smaller gardens, woodland-style plantings or containers, it rewards with elegant foliage and dependable autumn colour. Protect from drying winds and strong midday sun, especially on exposed sites, and keep the root zone evenly moist during establishment.

To help give a clear sense of scale, the stone wall shown in our photos measures approximately 265cm in height. We also use familiar garden tools as visual references: a digging fork (110cm tall) and a hand fork (30cm tall). These are included purely as size guides to help you better judge proportions when viewing the images.
