The superb silver lines on the bark of this maple gradually snake around the trunk as it grows creating a ghostly effect which makes this tree a fascinating addition to a winter garden. The leaves turn rich yellow in a good autumn and are complimented by clusters of ruddy seeds on mature trees. The leaves are dark green and noticeably more narrow then those of a species Acer davidii.
