Acer platanoides 'Royal Red' Batch No:178471 chinensis bearing a glorious mass'Royal Red' is very similar to the 'Crimson King' cultivar but is slightly more upright, slower growing and more maroon purple in colour. As it isn't as vigorous it is less prone to frost cracks. Bears small yellow red tinged flowers together with the emerging dark foilage in spring. Yellow and orange autumn colour. Hardy.
