I have an Acer palmatum 'Osakazuki' in a pot which I bought last year
but can't seem to find a good place for. I also have a spare 1m tall
strawberry planter.
It occurs to me that the acer would look good situated 1m above ground
in said planter. Would this work if I fill the planter with JI / garden
soil or would the roots quickly be too constricted?
Depends how big the strawberry planter is
standard one that you see around - 1m high, 2ft across?, about 20 slots
for strawberry plants
Also be very careful to cover soil tightly with planting membrane plus
gravel to stop Vine weevil getting in cos they love Acers
thanks for that tip
