Cleveland Norway Maple

1997 Comments: This area is becoming more urban. Some of these trees were lost due to changes in the setting. This plant was originally selected for its upright oval character. Most upright selections have a normal growth pattern after they exceed twenty years of age which is the case for this plant as well.

Twenty-seven percent of the overall planting survived (4 of 15 trees). The 1997 data in the table are based on four trees.
