any secret to getting such vivid colours, is down to a particular feeding regime?

First and most important is that it is cold here. We have had many days in a row of minus temperatures.
Second the tree survived summer without a dry out.
Third it is healthy but has not had a total repot this year.
Fourth the trees are getting older.
And the tree is in full sun.

Hi all,

The Japanese Maple group was still in such good leaf and colour this morning that it glowed in the mist and minus 5 or so we had.
