Acer tegmentosum 'Joe Witt' is an exceptional small specimen tree selected for its vivid green bark dramatically streaked with creamy white striping, providing strong winter interest and four-season appeal. Large, exotic-looking foliage emerges bronze-green before maturing to deep green and finishing with soft yellow fall color. Selected from the University of Washington's Washington Park Arboretum and named for after its curator, Acer tegmentosum 'Joe Witt' develops a graceful branching structure with age and performs particularly well in woodland gardens, shaded courtyards, and protected landscape settings with consistent moisture and rich soils. Reliable shade and consistent moisture are must-haves for 'Joe Witt' Manchu Striped Maple, ESPECIALLY in sites prone to high heat indexes. A sophisticated focal point for designers looking to introduce texture, bark interest, and understated elegance into partially shaded spaces.
