    I'm with  nut and Fairy too. That pink doesn't do justice to that plant at all

    I have mixed opinions on it. Done well, and trimmed regularly, and with the right setting, it can look good.  Untrimmed it looks bad. In the wrong setting, it looks bad.  I think overall I would prefer a good cultivar of Acer palmatum dissectum, with good autumn colour.

    all those white and pink things are sick looking to me, not enough chlorophyll and liable to burn round edges in anything other than moist, still, shady, mild situations.

    Plastic toys, I don't like those eitherimage

    lots of people bought spice girls CDs, but none of them can sing. Never confuse that which is merely popular, with that which is of great quality.

    The Acer I can live with ,but that other thing?? is it photinia? Vile.
