About this product

Acer ginnala, commonly known as Amur Maple, derives from the Amur River, which divides China and Russia. One of the very best trees for autumn colour, when its foliage turns a stunning red, it is also very early into leaf in spring and produces yellow-white fragrant flowers in May.

This is a small to medium tree with a rounded habit and often comes with a multi-stemmed trunk and rounded crown. The bark of the tree is smooth and grey. It is good for parks and public gardens and can be used as a patio tree. Acer ginnala flourishes in full sun or light shade and most soil types. It has the added advantages of being wind and drought-resistant, withstands heavy pruning, and is easy to transplant.

Mature height: 7-12m
