This Acer campastre ‘Fastigiatum’ has a columnar to ovoid, dense crown. The branches grow upward and have an upward-sloping growth habit. These specific characteristics make the tree suitable for planting along (narrow) avenues and streets.
Its greatest ornamental value likely lies in its three- to five-lobed leaves, which are smaller than those of the species. These leaves have a beautiful green to bronze color. In the fall, they take on a beautiful yellow autumn color.
Starting in late April, this tree blooms rather inconspicuously with its yellow-green flowers. These later develop into the characteristic winged fruits.
Acer campestre ‘Lienco’ is a good alternative to this tree.
