At first, it was grown in the Summer Garden under careful care, as it was considered insufficiently winter-hardy. Subsequently, it spread throughout the European part of the country, and currently, Norway maple shoots are disposed of like weeds.

Their autumn color depends on how warm or cold, rainy or dry the past summer was. The color varies from yellow to orange, sometimes it can be purple. Very decorative are the small yellow flowers that appear on the plant in April-May, even before the leaves bloom. They combine beautifully with the black bark of the tree.

Growing conditions: grows in any light. Wind-, dust-, smoke- and gas-resistant, suitable for city life. Grows best on moist, fertile loams with a high humus content and slightly acidic or neutral reaction of the environment. Does not tolerate excess moisture, acidity, compaction and increased soil salinity. Quite winter-hardy, but decorative forms can freeze and suffer from frost cracks in the trunk. Norway maple easily tolerates pruning. Even adult trees (up to 10-15 years old) tolerate transplantation.

It is used in group and solo plantings. Compositions consisting of varieties with permanent purple leaf coloring and varieties that change their color from green to red and vice versa look interesting.
