    "Bailey's Compact Amur Maple is an excellent larger shrub for screening or as a striking fall feature in the garden. This compact variety grows about half the size of a traditional Amur maple to 7 to 9 ft. tall by about 8 ft. wide in sun or part shade. It is highly tolerant of urban pollution, extreme cold and adapts to both dry and moist conditions. The smaller maple leaf shaped green foliage turns outstanding shades of orange and in the fall."
