Acer ‘Drumondii’ is a fast growing tree that give abundant green leaves with bright cream margins right up to autumn before turning orange and falling off.
While it is fast growing it can easily be kept at a certain size by simply pruning in once a year in early spring before new growth starts.
It forms a perfectly round crown and can look quite well either planted on its own or along side Acer ‘Crimson King’.
