I think I mentioned Mallet Court
before. I've had very good quality from them in the past, and
in fact I need to call. Hopefully I will get my A. morrinosense

Yes, you did mention them and I tried them with no response. I'll try
emailing them again, I think. Or I'll ring them tomorrow.

The owner is maple expert James G. S. Harris. He mentioned
last year they were no longer doing their own grafting, and
there were some delays in putting the "outsourced" system
in place, I believe.

Have you got an Acer called 'Autumn Glory'? I've just read about it on the
PMA site (which is Junkers Nursery and is reconstructing its web site which
might be why it didn't load properly) and it says it was derived from those
at The Garden House, Buckland Monachorum. The description of its autumn
coloration is absolutely mouth watering!
