Acer Jules
Norway Maple Tree
The Acer Jules has been propagated by our team here at Mail Order Trees and Simpson’s Nurseries, and it is certainly a tree that we think will have great prospects. We have been monitoring its progress over the last few years and we have been extremely satisfied with its development. We are looking to be selling the ‘Jules’ on our website shortly, once we have a sizable number of specimens ready for sale. The leaves of this Acer are very special and they have a rich green base with the most beautiful splashes of creamy white variegation on the leaves. The cream colour is extremely prominent on fresh foliage and as the leaves mature the green shows through more which leaves a highly attractive mottled cream and green leaf. The foliage is of the classic lobed acer shape with definitive points at the end of each lobe.
