Acer negundo 'Aureomarginatum' Acer negundo 'Aureomarginatum'

Small to medium-sized tree (sometimes large shrub) with a wide, upright growth habit, reaching a height of circa 6 - 10 m. The differences with the other cultivars of A. negundo are few, but for the colour of the leaves. 'Aureomarginatum' has dark green leaves with creamy-yellow to cream coloured margins. Regularly completely creamy-yellow leaves appear on the tree too. During the summer months this “variegated” effect becomes less conspicuous. The tree grows both on wet and dry sites. It has a deep rooting main root which branches out strongly. This is an old female cultivar, dating from 1885. 'Aureomarginatum' can perfectly be applied in parks and large gardens.
Our trees can only be planted when they don't have any leaves. Due to the this we will start delivering again from November 2025.
