An extraordinary deciduous tree with superb ornamental value! Acer griseum is a slow growing tree with a beautiful spreading habit, ultimately growing to a medium sized specimen. Its winning feature is the cinnamon coloured bark which slowly peels to create a shaggy appearance, giving rise to its common name of Paper Bark Maple.
