Acer campestre 'Huibers Elegant' – Acer campestre 'Huibers Elegant'

View prices and availability
Small to medium size tree, initially narrow pyramidal, later ovoid. The branching pattern is conspicuously steep, around 45°. This means the crown stays fairly narrow. The dark green leaf turns a deep golden yellow in autumn. The leaf is highly resistant to mildew, red spider mite and gall mite. A good avenue tree for use on green belts, road verges, narrower streets, housing estates and squares. Unlike other Acer campestre cultivars, it grows fairly well enclosed by paved surfaces.
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.
