Acer truncatum (Standard) is more commonly known as the Shantung Maple, a rugged yet refined specimen that brings a wealth of verdant beauty and resilience to any landscape. Reigning at an impressive 20-25 feet tall, this deciduous tree showcases a verdant grove of glossy, medium-green three-lobed leaves that live a second life in autumn, transforming into a dazzling kaleidoscope of red, yellow and orange. As spring adorns its neatly rounded canopy with a delicate tapestry of small, yellow flowers, the Shantung Maple's striking light-colored inner bark offers year-round visual appeal. Its outstanding tolerance to urban pollution, combined with an enviable resistance to both heat and drought, accentuates its low-maintenance appeal. Ideally suited for full sun to part shade positions, the Shantung Maple imbues urban and suburban landscapes with a burst of fiery hues and a hint of exotic charm.
