  • Acer campestre, the Field Maple, is a medium-sized deciduous tree, its form a compact, bushy crown that speaks of the British countryside. The leaves, a signature feature, are five-lobed and, come autumn, they blush with warm yellows and reds, bringing a splash of seasonal colour to gardens, hedgerows, and wider landscapes. In spring, the tree offers up small green flowers, which give way to the familiar winged maple fruits.

  • This is one of the hardiest native maples. Acer campestre thrives all oThis tree is a great option for rural areas, as well as for creating shelterbelts, wildlife gardens, and natural boundaries.

  • Field Maple, once it's growing well, doesn't need much extra care and can handle nearly any type of soil. It's sold as a bare root tree, so you can plant it right away when it's dormant. During its early years, giving it a drink during dry spells will help it get established. Also, putting a thick layer of well-rotted mulch around the base will help the roots grow strong

    Watering Water thoroughly after planting and keep the soil evenly moist while the plant establishes. Once established, water during prolonged dry periods rather than little and often, allowing the soil to drain between waterings. Container-grown plants should be checked more frequently in warm or windy weather.

    Best Growing Conditions Grow in sun or partial shade in fertile loam. Choose a position with good airflow and enough space for the plant to reach its mature size. Mulch after planting and keep the root zone free from prolonged waterlogging, particularly through winter.

    Top tip

    Mulch around the root zone each spring to conserve moisture and suppress weeds, keeping mulch clear of the trunk. It works particularly well in a borders setting; give it enough space and light to develop naturally rather than crowding it.
