Description:

A slow growing ornamental shrub with beautiful dark red stems in winter; rich green leaves in summer turn orange to maroon in fall; best with some shelter, needs moist soil, water more if grown in full sun

Ornamental Features

W.B. Hoyt Vine Maple has attractive light green deciduous foliage which emerges buttery yellow in spring on a plant with a round habit of growth. The lobed leaves are highly ornamental and turn outstanding shades of orange and in the fall.

Landscape Attributes

W.B. Hoyt Vine Maple is a multi-stemmed deciduous shrub with a more or less rounded form. Its relatively fine texture sets it apart from other landscape plants with less refined foliage.

This is a relatively low maintenance shrub, and should only be pruned in summer after the leaves have fully developed, as it may 'bleed' sap if pruned in late winter or early spring. It has no significant negative characteristics.

W.B. Hoyt Vine Maple is recommended for the following landscape applications;

  • Accent
  • Mass Planting
  • General Garden Use

Planting & Growing

W.B. Hoyt Vine Maple will grow to be about 6 feet tall at maturity, with a spread of 6 feet. It has a low canopy, and is suitable for planting under power lines. It grows at a slow rate, and under ideal conditions can be expected to live for 60 years or more.

This shrub does best in full sun to partial shade. You may want to keep it away from hot, dry locations that receive direct afternoon sun or which get reflected sunlight, such as against the south side of a white wall. It requires an evenly moist well-drained soil for optimal growth, but will die in standing water. It is not particular as to soil pH, but grows best in rich soils. It is somewhat tolerant of urban pollution, and will benefit from being planted in a relatively sheltered location. Consider applying a thick mulch around the root zone over the growing season to conserve soil moisture. This is a selection of a native North American species.
