One of the most wonderful of all the low growing trees, this Acer is a sight to behold when fully grown. One 'must' however is that it should never be pruned in order to keep its unique shape. Prefers a semi shaded sheltered site for best results. Brilliant autumn foliage is an added attraction. Height 1-1.2m (3-4')
