Italian maple is a handsome medium-sized deciduous tree native to southern and central Europe, valued for its attractive lobed leaves and golden autumn colour. It is adaptable to a variety of well-drained soils and requires little intervention once established in a sunny or lightly shaded position. An excellent choice for parks, large gardens, and Mediterranean-style landscapes.
