Paperbark Maple

The Paperbark Maple, scientifically called Acer griseum, is a deciduous tree known for its unique peeling cinnamon-colored bark and three-lobed leaves. With a height of around 20 to 30 feet, it forms a rounded shape. Its standout feature is the bark, which curls and peels, revealing rich hues. The leaves have serrated edges and change from green in spring to vibrant reds and oranges in the fall, creating a stunning seasonal display. This tree thrives in partial to full sun and is ideal for adding interest to gardens and landscapes.
