Description
Commonly known as the Shantung maple, Acer truncatum is a deciduous tree native to China and Korea. It is well-suited to Australian gardens due to its adaptability to a range of soil types and climatic conditions. This tree typically grows to 6-10 meters in height, featuring a rounded canopy and attractive, lobed leaves that turn vibrant shades of yellow, orange, and red in autumn. It is relatively drought-tolerant once established and requires minimal maintenance, making it an excellent choice for urban landscapes, parks, and gardens.
