Yes, Acer negundo 'flamingo' likes ericaceous compost. The dark-colored, fresh-smelling, nutrient-rich compost in question makes Ericaceae (heath and heather) family members and select other plants happy. It serves as soil amendments, fertilizers, mulches, and rejuvenators for plants such as box elder (Acer negundo).
Acers will be quite happy in an ericaceous compost.
Maple family members grow more comfortably in ericaceous compost. The trees in question (Acer spp) tolerate the more acidic pH levels realized through applications of ericaceous (heath and heather family-related) organic amendments, fertilizers, and mulches.
Yes, maples like ericaceous compost. The kind of dark-colored, fresh-smelling, nutrient-rich compost in question tends to be associated with the Ericaceae family of heaths and heathers. But members of the Acer genus also tend to handle a compost that appeals to plants that prefer soil pHs in the acidic range.

No, boxelder bugs tend not to eat tomato plants.Specifically, the insect in question (Boisea trivittatus) particularly favors the seeds of ash (Fraxinus spp), box elder (Acer negundo) and maple (Acer spp) trees.Boxelder bugs may expand their food repertoire when they end up away from their preferred feeding sources. But they tend to reject a plant's fruits.
