Acer pensylvanicum

Description

The Moosewood, as it is called locally, was the first Stripe-Bark Maple to be described, and still holds its own among a vast number of exotic Asiatic species. Bold, lobed foliage unfurls in spring green, later turning butter yellow before dropping. Then is exposed a phantasm of striking, finely striated, phosphorescent bark of white and green. These are seedlings from our trees, that we raised from seed collected in Antrim County, Michigan in 1987.
