Uses: Popular Acer for parks and larger gardens.
Tolerates a wide variety of conditions.
Care should be taken when planting near bushland particularly along watercourses as this species has become weedy in many parts of south eastern Australia.
As an alternative use the Acer negundo 'Sensation'. cultivar. This is described as a fruitless (i.e.. sterile) variety. Note: These trees and shrubs are listed in Regulation 24.3 under the Sewerage Act and may be planted in any street or road in any drainage area not closer than 3.5 metres to any sewer main or connection. In home gardens, too, they should not be planted closer than 3.5 metres to any sewer pipe.
