Full Description

The branches are naturally arching, giving the tree an elegant, spreading shape. Fully hardy, trees require sunny or semi-shaded sites with fertile and moist, but well-drained soil. They will benefit from a top dressing of fertiliser around the base of the plant in spring.

It’s one of the hardiest maples of its type. It is also very site tolerant so long as soils are reasonable and climatic conditions are not severe.
