Green upright Zone: 4 Height: 15-20' Width / Spread: 10-15' Fall Foliage: Red/Orange Flower: Purple Description (from Millican Nurseries): A nice alternative to Japanese maples in harsh Zone 4 conditions. Large, deeply-cut green leaves similar to a Acer japonicum 'Aconitifolium'. Striking blend of orange and red fall foliage. Displays all the artistry of a Japanese maple with much greater cold-tolerance.
My sister planted one in Minneapolis (zone 4) just before winter, and it leafed out perfectly this spring. That was after a colder than usual winter, too. Seems like one tough tree.
