Remarks:
I love that tree - "Autumn Purple". It has rapid growth that tolerates moist conditions. Great as a street or lawn tree. Oval in shape. Deep green foliage in spring, turning deep purple in the fall.Discovered at the University of Wisconsin, Madison, by Karl Junginger (1905-1991) of McKay nursery, Waterloo, WI. Introduced in 1956.
