Description

A popular and reliable small garden tree, Acer pseudoplatanus 'Brilliantissimum' has spectacular shrimp-pink leaves when they emerge in spring. This vivid pink leaf colour holds for several weeks before the leaves gradually fade back to creamy green in mid to late summer. The slow rate of growth makes this maple suitable for growing in smaller gardens or even very large containers.
