Acer platanoides 'Royal Red'
Acer platanoides ‘Royal Red’ is a highly decorative ornamental maple valued for its intense reddish-purple foliage from spring onwards, which maintains a dark, rich color throughout the season before sometimes developing pronounced autumnal hues. Its rounded, full silhouette brings an elegant and structured presence to flowerbeds, avenues, or large gardens, creating a striking contrast with surrounding green foliage. Very hardy and adaptable to a variety of well-drained soils, this maple prefers a sunny to semi-shaded exposure, which allows it to fully develop the intensity of its colors and offer lasting visual interest.
