I bought a Japanese maple at homebase and it was only £3.47.
I saw blow maples at different homebase stores in London:
Phoenix
Taylor
Orange Dream
Atropurpureum
Wilson's Pink Dwarf
Beni Maiko
Little Princess
Palmatum Dissectum
We have five Acres and found them easy to grow except the one called butterfly but with a little TLC and not to much sun it's now thriving!

They are actually 20-30cm and look really healthy. Some of them are slow growing.

Noticed that on their website they are advertised at £2.97 so checked in store and although priced up at £3.47 they honoured the online price, hope this helps someone.

Seems fairly expensive for that size. Haven't shopped in Morrison's for awhile but they did several varieties for £1.99 and they are around 30cm, and very good quality and healthy.

Nice price but a nightmare to look after this young and small

Not sure I'd say they're a nightmare, but I'd certainly recommend buying a larger specimen.
I love my Japanese Maples, but like many others I'm no expert. Larger specimens I've bought certainly have a better shape to those I've grown from small myself.
