Description

Acer platanoides 'Globosum' is a deciduous tree that is slow growing. The leaves have five lobes and are deep green above and paler beneath. This tree is very adaptable and tolerates many soil and environmental conditions. Some adverse factors include voracious roots, self-sown seedlings, and aphid-caused honeydew drip and sooty mold.

Water Saving Tip:

Fix leaking sprinklers, valves, and pipes.

One broken spray sprinkler can waste 10 gallons per minute - or 100 gallons in a typical 10 minute watering cycle.
