[http://hua.huh.harvard.edu/china/mss/volume11/Aceraceae-AGH_reviewing.htm ''Flora of China'': Aceraceae (draft)]</ref><ref name=gelderen>{{cite book|author=van Gelderen, C.J. & van Gelderen, D.M.|year=1999|title=''Maples for Gardens: A Color Encyclopedia''}}</ref> It is a trifoliate maple related to such other species as [[Acer mandshuricum|Manchurian Maple]] (''Acer mandshuricum'') and [[Paperbark Maple]] (''Acer griseum''). It has yellowish-brown [[exfoliation (botany)|exfoliating bark]] that peels in woody scales rather than papery pieces like ''Acer griseum''.<ref name=gelderen/>

It grows at a 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/>
