Snake Bark Maple Trees

Description
A striking patterned tree, Acer x conspicuum 'Red Flamingo' features both variegated leaves and striped bark. The unique foliage starts with striking pink and green variegation, developing into beautiful marbled patterns containing green, pink and white. While younger leaves show the strongest patterns, some mature foliage may settle into greener tones, adding depth and variation to the display.
Young stems are bright red, with more mature bark developing white stripes. It is known as a Snake Bark Maple for this snakeskin-like feature bark that provides interest year-round.
Acer conspicuum 'Red Flamingo' will grow to a height and spread of 5 x 4 metres in 20 years, suiting a range of garden sizes. It is best planted in a sheltered position with full sun to partial shade. Perfect as a focal point or specimen tree, this Maple brings year-round colour and texture to the garden.
