Origin: Mediterranean basin. Large
shrub or small deciduous tree with
thick, twisted trunk and compact
crown; greyish-brown bark with
fine cracks. Rather small leaves (3-
6cm) with three large, blunt tipped
lobes and entire margins; the
upper side is dark green and the
underneath glaucous-green. In
autumn the leaves turn a pretty
yellow. Small, yellowish-green
flowers arranged in erect corymbs
in April-May, followed immediately
by winged fruit which are purple
when they first appear and later
greenish-grey. Grows well in all
types of garden soil, even dry and calcareous and likes a warm, sunny position.
