Acer tataricum
Tatarian maple

Culture: Tolerant of adverse conditions including drought, the Tatarian maple is good for use in containers and small or restricted sites.

Verticillium wilt may be a problem in some areas, otherwise, rather pest free.

Usage: A handsome small tree with interesting fruit, this tree has potential for small areas that may be difficult to grow larger-sized plants in. 'Red Wing' is a promising cultivar with bright red summer fruits.
