I started my Acer Palmatums in mid-feruary this year. I think I have about 15 going. Some are thriving, some are lookin' pewny and still only have two leaves...

The ones in plastic pots seem to be doing the worst. The ones in paper pots, and the ones in the larger clay pots seem to be doing the best. The ones in the smaller clay pots vary, but none are as pewny as the ones in the plastic pots...

...as far as color goes, they're all lookin good and green, except for a lil deep red on some of the stressed lookin' ones...
