Last Spring we thought we'd lost our much loved Japanese Maple.
We guessed that the damage was the result of a winter ice storm,
but never figured out the cause or how the maple recovered. But, it did recover!
It was a beauty this summer and looked spectacular in the Fall when the leaves darkened to a deep red.
We thought it was a gonner. But, it made quite a recovery.
It really added color to the summer garden.
But nothing can compare to the deep red of its leaves this Fall.

I think this may be my favorite shrub.
Do you have a fav?
