Re: Crimson Queen - Leaves

Hi David, I think your Acer may be struggling due to lack of water.. you may have planted it in a terracotta pot which are notoriously thirsty and so make more demands on the plant by taking up any water you provide. I always recommend lining terracotta pots with plastic, I use old compost bags and make holes in them for drainage. If the leaves have put on their autumn colours, then the next process is for leaf fall.. I am not certain that it can be stopped now.. Don't be afraid to take the plant out of its pot to have a look at the roots, see how they look, they will tell you what's going on..
Hope that's helpful. Best wishes, Judi.. :-)
