Default Acer question.

We are having trouble choosing between Acer Bloodgood, Garnet Dissectum, or
Burgundy Lace. Which would you experts consider the best for colour,
hardiness and shape.

We are going to put it in reasonably sheltered from wind, sun and shade, the
plant will be in the north facing border , in an East facing garden, it will
be sheltered by Mesquite Gold rush, Silver birch, beech and a large clump
of spyrea.

We want to buy a 5'by 3' to fill the gap, and we would be keeping it in its
pot for the moment.

We live in Formby, Merseyside, approx 2miles away from the sea.

We would prefer deep red in Autumn, but looking on the internet and books,
I'm sure some of the colours are enhanced.


Thanks very much.
