Compact Amur Maple Shrub
The Compact Amur Maple (Acer ginnala 'Compactum') is an ornamental Maple shrub with a small form that brings all your favorite features of a Maple in a compact package. Your Compact Amur Maple has a compact, rounded form that fills out nicely with dark green, 3-lobed leaves.
Clusters of small, pale yellow flowers will appear in spring to tease your senses with their subtle, sweet fragrance and bring in the butterflies. Double samara seedpods develop soon after and shift from green into brown for mid-summer. The Compact Amur Maple grows naturally as a multi-stemmed, dense, and compact shrub.
As delightful as all these features are, however, you'll see the true value of this diminutive shrub when it displays its autumn color! Your Compact Amur Maple will burst forth in shades of orange and red that seem to burn like tiny beacons amid other fall plantings!
Landscape Application:
The Amur Maple Shrub would make an excellent accent plant for your foundation or among mixed shrub borders! A dramatic hedge along an outbuilding or your property line as a screen or colorful privacy row!
The size of this deciduous plant is even great as a container plant for your patio! Try "limbing up" your shrub by pruning it into a single or multi-stemmed small tree. This will create a stunning small specimen for your front and back yard garden vignettes, raised berms, and urn focal points!
- Lacy 3-Lobed Leaves
- Dense Multi-Stemmed Shrub
- Bright Orange & Red Fall Color
- Fragrant Little Flowers
- Hedges, Container Plants & Small Scale Specimens
#ProPlantTips for Care:
Your Compact Amur Maple enjoys well-drained soils and full sun, but will tolerate some shade - especially in hotter climates. It's reasonably drought-tolerant once established but you should water new trees consistently and not let them dry out, that way your Maple established a deep root system. Prune in late winter or early spring to tidy up and shape your shrub.
- Full Sun & Highly Adaptable
- Well-Drained Soil
- Moderate Moisture Needs
- Prune In Spring
- Very Easy To Grow!
You can expect your Compact Amur Maple to have a 60-year lifespan, so whatever form you choose to grow your Maple in, you're sure to enjoy it for a very long time. Order this Maple bush at NatureHills.com today!
