Description

Of all the lovely small trees in cultivation, this maple stands supreme with gorgeous, peeling cinnamon coloured bark and fiery red and orange autumn colours. Acer griseum was introduced to the United Kingdom from China and is a very hardy and reliable tree. The autumn colour and peeling bark gives this tree superb year round interest. A glorious, slow growing, ornamental tree which is also suited to gardens with limited space.
