Awarded an AGM by the Royal Horticultural Society, this is a handsome golden-leaved Norway maple, that holds its colour well throughout the season. It also has a good resistance to scorch, so it will be equally happy in a sunny or partially shaded spot. An eye-catching tree, it’s probably at its absolute best when the new foliage is at its most vibrant gold. It makes a stunning focal point or feature, and once established it will take pollution and drought in its stride.
Garden care: Plant as soon as conditions allow (avoiding frozen and waterlogged conditions). Incorporate lots of well-rotted garden compost in the planting hole and stake firmly. Add a top-dressing of a multi-purpose fertiliser around the base of the plant in late spring. No routine pruning is required, just remove any dead, damaged or crossing branches in late autumn or winter when the tree is fully dormant.
