Paperbark Maple (Acer griseum)
A small to medium-sized tree that is truly attractive in all seasons. It has interesting and varied branching patterns and is disease and pest-free. However, its best attributes are the glowing reddish-orange fall color and its bark that is a rich cinnamon color that exfoliates in polished curls. It’s slow growing, but definitely worth the wait.
