The species was first introduced to cultivation in 1923. Although common in maple collections, it is rarely seen in cultivation outside of [[arboretum|arboreta]].
It grows at slow to moderate rate and prefers moist, well drained soil; growth is often [[shrub]]-like in cultivation. It is relatively tolerant of drought and clay compared to its close relatives. It does not tolerate wet or over-compacted soil<ref name="ncsi"/>. [[Plant propagation|Propagation]] is similar to that required for ''Acer griseum'' and the number of viable seeds is likewise very small.<ref name="gelderen"/>▼
