(Almost) Wordless Wednesday: A Bit of a Mouthful

Close-up of Acer palmatum 'Dissectum Atropurpureum' leaves in the rain

Acer palmatum var. dissectum Dissectum Atropurpureum Group is a bit of a mouthful, so it's good to see it's a synonym now for the slightly snappier Acer palmatum 'Dissectum Atropurpureum'.

Whatever its name, it's still one of my favourite plants.

    1. It does - still one of the more lengthy plant names though ;)
