My Acer is looking sick with white edges to it's red leaves.
It has been watered copiously, do it require a specific feed ?


No it probably do not. It sounds like wind burn or more likely sun scorch.
Move it to a semi shaded or full shaded area for a while and give the
leaves a misting.
Do you know the specific variety of Acer?
