The Acer Negundo Aureo Variegatum Box Elder is a beautiful deciduous Acer. Its foliage is pinnate leaves that are light green with golden margins. On occasion the branches may produce solid green foliage. If this is the case please remove. Its attractive foliage is a perfect contrast to most garden shrubs and will be ideal as a feature point for the smaller garden.
