Almost Wordless Wednesday: Self Sown Acers

I love acer trees, Japanese Maples, as we used to call them in the States.  So I was delighted to find several little self sown seedlings in the border when I was weeding yesterday.  

I carefully dug them up and potted them into compost. 

I don't know if they will survive but I had to give it try. 

I'll let you know how these little trees get on.  Fingers crossed they make it!
