Acer pseudoplatanus 'Brilliantissimum'
1st May 2006
This gorgeous little dwarf fills me with joy during april and may. The bright pale luminous leaves are a wonder unlike any other, and by june, the tree is as dull as ditchwater, with leaves of an equally unique unpleasant green. I love it, I hate it. By october it is just a pile of sticks, and I can rest my emotions for the year.

I keep it in a pot in the shade, because in full sun it can develop the strangest yellow tints.
