Because of its striking foliage color, the maple is an attractive spring tree. The foliage unfolds in spring with a characteristic pink color and turns within weeks into a yellow-orange color.

Later, the leaves turn yellow-green and last – light green. While the leaves unfold, the flowers still appear. This tree can be found in almost every park. It is also suitable for small gardens. It is tolerant to damp, cold soils and wind resistant yet. The bright sunlight can burn off the leaves.

The ball maples are affected by fungal diseases. Several are susceptible to wilting caused by the Verticillium species, which can cause significant mortality.

The maple leaves in late summer and autumn are defaced by “tar spot” caused by mildew.
