Water Saving Tip:

Even though it's hot, your lawn only needs to be watered twice a week to stay healthy.

And don't water the whole lawn for a brown spot—drag out a hose.

  • Description

  • Notes

This maple is deciduous accent tree that grows 20 to 25 feet tall and maybe as wide. A selection of Box elder, it is fast growing. The foliage produced is green and creamy (variegated) and the seed pods are weeping-looking. This tree may be difficult to find; you can substitute with 'Flamingo' cultivated variety. When stressed, tree may produce solid gree leaves; prune out those branches as they may out-grow the variegated portion.
