Acer conspicuum Red Flamingo

Acer conspicuum ‘Red Flamingo’ is a striking and ornamental small tree known for its brilliant display of variegated foliage and showy bark for year-round interest. It suits sheltered mixed borders. The leaves are deeply lobed and emerge each spring on bright red shoots and are followed by tiny yellow-green flowers. These leaves are vibrant shades of pink, cream, and green, creating a fiery effect reminiscent of a flamingo’s colours. As the season progresses, the hues transition to deeper shades of green and white, maintaining an eye-catching contrast. This deciduous tree typically reaches a moderate size, making it suitable for gardens where a bold splash of colour is desired. It thrives in partial shade to full sun and is an excellent choice for adding year-round interest to landscapes.
