Description
Deeply lobed, mid-green summer foliage turns brilliant purple then orange-yellow in autumn. The rounded, heavy crown and beautiful leaves make this a fantastic tree for planting as a specimen in grass. Inconspicuous yellow flowers are produced in late spring and these are usually followed by attractive spiky, round fruit cases.
