Acer Griseum

An extraordinary deciduous tree with superb ornamental value! Acer griseum is a slow growing tree with a beautiful spreading habit, ultimately growing to a medium sized specimen. Its winning feature is the cinnamon coloured bark which slowly peels to create a shaggy appearance, giving rise to its common name of Paper Bark Maple. The deeply cut, 3 lobed leaves are greenish-yellow turning to brilliant scarlet in autumn. Acer griseum is often grown as a stand-alone specimen tree in UK gardens. Plant it in a prominent spot where it’s intriguing bark can be appreciated all year round. Height and spread: 10m (30’).

Plant height and spread is seasonal therefore we list by pot size rather than a defined plant size. The height and spread of the plant delivered will vary depending on the season, meaning arrival images are an indication only.
