Description

Acer platanoides 'Globosum' is a deciduous tree that is slow growing. The leaves have five lobes and are deep green above and paler beneath. This tree is very adaptable and tolerates many soil and environmental conditions. Some adverse factors include voracious roots, self-sown seedlings, and aphid-caused honeydew drip and sooty mold.

Water Saving Tip:

Check your irrigation controller once a month, and adjust as necessary.

Most plants require only one-third as much water in winter as they do in summer.
