Description
Acer sterculiaceum ssp. franchetii ex. SEH#129 A rarely offered species of maple that is equally rarely seen in collections. This forms a medium-growing to large tree with deciduous leaves that are somewhat bullate and with toothed margins. The leaves are primarily three-lobed but with two small lobes at the base as well. Yellow fall foliage color. One of my favorite maples and very distinct in foliage. Native to forests in the Sino-Himalayan region. Grown from seed collected from a tree grown from my collection of wild seed in this region in 1995. (-10?) RSBG
