Planting & Care

The UK's only native maple, featuring distinctive five-lobed leaves for a unique deciduous hedge.
Enjoy a stunning seasonal display as leaves shift from red-tinged green in spring to glorious golden-yellow in autumn.
In spring, clusters of small, greenish-yellow flowers provide vital nectar for bees, followed by classic winged 'helicopter' seeds.
Perfect for creating a dense, wildlife-friendly hedge, either on its own or as part of a mixed native boundary.
A robust and fast-growing choice, easily maintained at a height of 1-5m.
Awarded the RHS 'Plants for Pollinators' mark, recognising its value to bees and butterflies.
Holds the prestigious RHS Award of Garden Merit for its reliability and performance.

Species: Maple
Features: Native to UK
Flowers: Small yellow-green flowers in spring
Flowering Time: March, April, May
Position: Full sun to partial shade
Soil: Any well drained, fertile soil. Will tolerate less than perfect conditions but prefers well drained, loamy soils.
Hardiness: H6 - Fully hardy in all of UK and northern Europe (-20 to -15°C)
Habit: A bushy shrub with several shoots, ideal for hedging.
Eventual Spread: Spreads to approximately 3m without pruning
Growth Rate: Fast growing, adding 30-60cm per year
Pest & Disease: Good pest and disease resistance, though may suffer from verticillium wilt, aphids or horse chestnut scale.

Planting Time: January to November
Spacing: Plant 5-7 plants per metre for a dense hedge.
Soil Preparation: If your soil is heavy or sandy, mix in some perlite or fine horticultural grit when planting to improve drainage.
Watering: Water well when newly planted until established.
