Description

This plant is a broad-crowned tree with attractive foliage. The small medium green, deeply lobed leaves turn brillant orange-red to wine-red in fall. Small panicles of very fragrant, creamy white flowers emerge in the spring. A. ginnala can be grown as either a single or multi-stemmed tree. Its irregular growth habit creates an interesting silhouette. It will become chlorotic if planted in alkaline soils. It does best in full sun. -Fort Collins Nursery

Water Saving Tip:

Replace turf with groundcovers, trees, and shrubs. If you have areas where no one uses the grass, patches that do not grow well, or a turf area too small to water without runoff, consider replacing the turf with water-efficient landscaping.
