Description
Acer platanoides Drummondii is a large deciduous specimen tree selected for its bright, crisply variegated canopy.
Deeply lobed green Norway-maple leaves carry broad creamy-white margins, turn yellow to orange in autumn, and surround small yellow spring flower clusters.
Grow it in sun or partial shade in moist but well-drained soil, and promptly remove vigorous all-green reverted branches to preserve the cultivar.
