Snake-Bark Maple
Acer Capillipes
A wonderful, spreading deciduous tree with smooth and enticing, greenish bark which is attractively streaked creamy-white all year round. It has distinctively shaped, three-lobed bright green leaves with a slender pointed tip which take on brilliant shades of red and orange in the autumn. Pinkish-red young shoots emerge from naturally arching branches, giving the tree an elegant, spreading shape. Native to Japan, this is a perfect tree for the smaller garden.
