Field Maple (Acer campestre)

The Field Maple is a colourful and compact garden tree with an expected mature height of around 10m. 

The only British native maple.  Grows well in lime rich soil.   The small leaves provide a dappled light.  Often planted in urban areas because of its tolerance to air pollution and its beautiful autumn colour.

They are not fussy about planting location or soil type, but they will thrive best in a sunny spot.
