Description
The ‘George Forrest’ is an outstanding variety of maple, which is perfect for adding year-round interest to your garden. In spring, small yellow flowers appear in racemes on the tree. Spring also brings the rich green leaves out, and these are ovate in shape and held on scarlet coloured stalks. Come autumn, pinkish fruits appear and the leaves fade to deep shades of yellow and orange before falling. Winter interest is offered with the distinctive bark: the ‘snakebark’ is green with white stripes. This tree grows to have a broadly upright habit and it makes a lovely specimen.
