Acer platanoides ‘Crimson Sentry’ is a compact, upright form of Norway Maple valued for its rich burgundy-purple foliage and neat, columnar habit. The deeply coloured leaves emerge bright red-purple in spring and mature to darker shades, providing excellent contrast throughout the growing season. Its relatively narrow growth makes it particularly useful for smaller gardens, avenues, and areas where space is limited. Hardy and dependable, ‘Crimson Sentry’ is an excellent specimen tree for adding height, structure, and dramatic foliage colour.
