Product Details
Overview & Specifications
Boxelder Maple Tree - Acer negundo 'Flamingo'
Acer negundo 'Flamingo' is a fast-establishing deciduous specimen valued for its exceptional variegated foliage, soft green leaves edged in creamy white, flushed pink in spring. Supplied as advanced stock, it delivers immediate visual presence and canopy structure from the moment of installation.
Why Boxelder Maple 'Flamingo'
Distinctive Foliage: Tricolour variegation of green, white, and spring-pink provides year-round interest and strong contrast against evergreen planting schemes.
Rapid Establishment: A vigorous grower that quickly forms a defined canopy, accelerating the maturity of new landscapes.
Climate Resilience: Tolerates drought, cold, and a broad range of soil conditions; well-suited to the variable Australian climate.
Dappled Shade: The spreading canopy filters light effectively, creating comfortable outdoor conditions beneath the tree.
Mature Scale: Reaches 6 to 10m in height and spread, providing genuine structural presence in the landscape.
Siting note: Box elders are known to self seed, so it is worth siting this tree away from creek lines.
Ideal Applications
Specimen Feature Tree: Positioned as a standalone focal point in open lawn or paved settings where the foliage commands attention.
Formal Avenue Planting: Consistent form and colouring make it well-suited to repetitive avenue or boulevard installations.
Canopy Layer: Integrates effectively into layered planting compositions alongside evergreen understorey and structured groundcovers.
Streetscape and Civic Projects: Hardy and adaptable; appropriate for urban street tree applications and council-scale landscape projects.
Specimen & Installation
Spacing (feature/avenue): 5 to 8m
Best Planting Season: Autumn to early spring
Soil & Drainage: Adaptable to most soil types including clay and sandy soils; prefers moist, well-drained conditions but tolerates periodic waterlogging
Establishment Care: Water deeply and regularly for the first two years until established, particularly during dry spells and summer heat. Apply a layer of mulch around the root zone to retain moisture and suppress weeds, keeping mulch clear of the trunk.
