Japanese Maples and Ivory Silk Lilacs

Japanese Maples come in many shapes and sizes and of course many variances of colour.  There are green varieties and red varieties, weeping forms and upright forms.  Of course every tree had it's own character and personality and it seems it depends one what time of day you look at the tree.  They are slow growers and the red ones have an intense red colour in the fall.The green ones turn a beautiful yellow colour.  The weeping varieties have lovely lacy foliage and mounding forms.  Take a look at some of the pictures below and see if any tickle your fancy.  The Ivory Silk Lilacs are in bloom and look spectacular against the blue sky!
