Initially the foliage of this undemanding tree is a dazzling shrimp pink, but as it matures, it turns a soft yellowish-green. A highly ornamental sycamore, it has a spreading habit, but is both smaller and slower growing than many of the others. This top-worked tree (ie grafted at 1.2m), is perfect for more compact gardens, and it can also cope with salt-laden winds.
Garden care: Add a top dressing of a multi-purpose fertiliser around the base of the plant in late spring. No routine pruning is required, just remove any dead, damaged or crossing branches in late autumn or winter when they are fully dormant.
