Needs a sheltered semi shaded spot either in tub or in the ground
If you put it in a tub then ensure that you cover the soil with planting
membrane and cover with gravel to prevent Vine weevils getting in

I planted a Japanese Maple last spring, it was about 4' tall, in an East
facing front garden not terribly well sheltered by northern winds, sun in
the morning shade in the afternoon, but I've a feeling this was all wrong
The leaves are speckled white and ragged. Question is can I move it
at
this time or wait till later in the year, and would it prefer a container
to
the garden?

Thanks again
