Acer negundo ‘Flamingo’ is a fast-growing, deciduous maple valued for its striking variegated foliage. The leaves are irregularly marked green and creamy white, with young growth flushed in soft pink tones that are most pronounced in spring and early summer. This colourful combination creates a light, airy canopy that stands out against darker planting. As the season progresses, the pink tones soften while the variegation remains bright and decorative. With a naturally open, spreading habit, ‘Flamingo’ is best suited to larger gardens or as a feature tree where its foliage colour can be appreciated. Hardy and adaptable to a wide range of soils, it is easy to grow and provides strong seasonal interest with minimal care.
