Acer negundo ‘Variegatum’ (Variegated Box Elder)

Description

Acer negundo ‘Variegatum’ is a medium sized tree, and makes a glorious addition to a garden but has to be well maintained ie pruned in winter, to get the most from its majestic display of silver lined variegated foliage.

It is really attractive in spring as fresh leaves open with soft catkin-like tassels.

Variegated Box Elder is tolerant of difficult sites, growing successfully in wet or dry soil and in semi-shade.
