Acer circinatum Morning Starburst
Acer Morning Starburst is an elegant addition to the garden that offers spectacular burgundy and red tones in the fall.

Acer ‘Morton UW’ Morning Starburst is a special vine maple (A. circinatum) hybrid with large leaves that emerge flushed with burgundy becoming green through summer and turning to spectacular burgundy and red tones in the fall to rival the best of the Japanese maples. Excellent for cold climates. Will grow slowly to 20-25 feet tall and 15-20 feet wide. Maples change through the seasons generally offering different colours and foliage patterns through spring, summer, and fall. We choose our photo to show the most distinctive characters but an internet image search will help you understand how each cultivar will change through the seasons. For the 2025 Rare Flowering Tree Pre-Order plants will be in 1g pots and about a whip about 1-2 feet tall.
