    This is a new dissectum introduced by Firma Esveld. It should be red becoming dark purplish-red, longer hold than 'Ornatum. I'll be posting several pics during the year to follow its features. These are just after bud break.

    I really like this dissectum. The color evolves towards a light brown with green undertones, unusual in the dissectums. I've staked it to give it a weeping form.

    This is my 'Emma' bought at Esveld last year. It is a vigorous grower and I really like it's colors. The pictures were taken this spring.

    25th April 2021 and my first posting of my Emma. I'm so glad that I can put this on here, as the thread has not been updated for over eleven years.
    So here it is just starting to leaf out.

    Good morning D, unfortunately I had to leave mine behind at my former house as it was planted in the ground.

    Good morning to you also M. Moving house is always fraught, should I dig it up and take it with me, risking a lot, or start over!!?
    I hope my photos over this season can help you make your mind up whether to buy one again. Let's hope it does.

    20th May 2021 and it's taken nearly a month to unfurl due to this very cold Spring, but now my Emma is looking rather nice.

    "Emma" atypical subject with branches only on one side!
    I discover this variety little by little

    11th November 2022 and not so many leaves this year. But what is there is quite pretty to look at IMO.

    31st October 2023 and one of the prettiest dissectums IMO 'Emma'. I love this one at the side of my path.
