Trident Maple (Acer Buergerianum)

Well known for the superb colors of its foliage in autumn. The bark is a dappled pale brown and exfoliates with age revealing a grey orange and brown color. The small leaves (which resist scorching during drought) have 3 short lobes close together - hence the name Tri-dent. The spring flowers are inconspicuous and the new growth is often bronze to purple. Very popular for bonsai because of the small handsome leaves. Deciduous. Keep outdoors. 5 tree group - 8-9 years old. 19"x14"x17". Potted in a 19" oval brown mica pot as shown. Shipped via UPS ground - $39.95.
