Striped maple, Goosefoot maple, or Moosewood is a small, understory tree adored for its bold, green-and-white-striped bark, heart-shaped leaves, and buttery yellow fall color. They are found in cool, moist forests of the northeastern United States and southeastern Canada. They thrive in shady, acidic, well-drained soils and make an excellent choice for woodland gardens or restoration plantings.
Quirky yet hardy, striped maple reaches 15β30 feet at maturity, tolerates deer browsing better than many species when established. Itβs a low-maintenance option for anyone wanting to add layered structure and seasonal interest to a native plant palette.
