Acer platanoides 'Columnare' |
+ Add |
Columnar Norway Maple |
Description
This slow-growing tree has a distinct, narrow habit. Its roots system, however, is shallow, so it will compete with turf and make mowing turf around this tree a bit difficult. This tree is still popular for street planting because of its upright habit. The leaves turn yellow in the fall.
