Acer platanoides 'Crimson King' Standard

Origin: Holland. Deciduous tree with wide columnar or round crown, or large upright shrub. Popular for its large leaves, up to 15cm wide with 5 lobes, deep crimson which stays intense even in summer. Flowers in spring when the leaves are beginning to form, grouped in upright corymbs, unusual and extremely attractive because of the contrast between the yellow petals and stamens with the bright red stigma and sepals. Otherwise it is like the A. platanoides.
