Although this cultivar grows fairly slowly, it reaches considerably higher than the species. Eventually it attains a height of 15 m. The spreading round crown is dense. The thick twigs have non-sticky buds. The leaves unfold with a reddish colour and turn to light green. They are opposite and become up to 15 cm across. They are palmately compound and consist of 5 to 7 smaller, obovate leaflets. 'Atrosanguinea' has a yellow brown to orange autumn colour and the leaves are shed early. The rather small, dark red flowers appear in erect panicles and become 10 to 15 cm. The tree prospers best in slightly moist soil. Good hardiness. Intolerant to hard surfaces and is susceptible to deicing-salt (for icy roads).
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.
