Abstract
This cultivar of Norway Maple in cultivation grows to a height of 60 to 70 feet with a slightly smaller spread. The upright, rounded crown centered on a straight trunk fills with greenish-yellow flowers in the spring. Lateral branches grow upright while the tree is young which minimizes the pruning requirement.
