About this product
This large, robust and vigorous ornamental tree has deep crimson/purple foliage throughout the spring and summer, hence the common name Purple Norway Maple. The autumn colour foliage ranges from orange to brown making this a spectacular Maple tree throughout most of the year. Flowers are small, yellow and tinted red in spring.
It will do well in most soils and is tolerant of many difficult conditions including exposed, coastal positions or chalky soil. Ideal for screening in larger gardens with an attractive rounded head in habit. Expect a height and spread of 8 x 5 metres in 20 years but more in maturity.
