If available other names are mentioned here Any grafting is best carried out in September rather than February. Cultivars can be budded onto rootstocks of the species. The rooted cuttings must show new growth during the summer before being potted up otherwise they are unlikely to survive the winter. Remove a very thin slice of bark at the base of the cutting, rooting is improved if a rooting hormone is used. The cuttings should have 2 - 3 pairs of leaves, plus one pair of buds at the base. Cuttings of young shoots in June or July. Layering, which takes about 12 months, is successful with most species in this genus. When large enough to handle, prick the seedlings out into individual pots and grow them on until they are 20cm or more tall before planting them out in their permanent positions. If the seed is harvested too soon it will produce very weak plants or no plants at all. The seed can be harvested 'green' (when it has fully developed but before it has dried and produced any germination inhibitors) and sown immediately. Pre-soak stored seed for 24 hours and then stratify for 2 - 4 months at 1 - 8°c. Seed - best sown as soon as it is ripe in a cold frame, it usually germinates in the following spring.

There are many named forms that have been selected for their ornamental value. The Norway maple is a quick-growing tree that has been widely planted in Britain and is more or less naturalized. Trees are very tolerant of atmospheric pollution. One report says that plants tolerate chalky soils, but another says that plants can develop chlorosis as a result of iron deficiency when they are grown in alkaline soils. Prefers a sunny position but tolerates some shade. Of easy cultivation, it prefers a good moist well-drained soil but thrives in any soil. campus: north side OEA Aministration Bulding, near 26th St.Landscape Uses:Firewood, Aggressive surface roots possible, Pollard, Screen. Widely planted and very common in the past, more recently it has been replaced by ‘Crimson King’, ‘Deborah’, and Fairview™ all three of which have a genetic connection to ‘Schwedleri’ It originated in 1864, described in 1869, and in American commerce before 1886. Hardy to USDA Zone 3A This selection was found by and named after Carl Heinrich Schwedler (1807-1880), head gardener for Prince Hohenlohe, in Slawentitz (Polish, Sławięcice), Upper Silesia (Śląsk), Prussia, now Poland. This range in color may be a result of environmental and seasonal differences, and possibly more than one clone is offered under the ‘Schwedleri’ name. Foliage color in autumn is reported as purple, orange, crimson, and even yellow. The petioles and veins remain purple red as well as the fruit. Young leaves are bright purple red in spring, contrasting with the yellow flowers the medium-sized leaves then transition to a brownish shade in summer, but to dark green in hot summers. Broadleaf deciduous tree, globe shaped, with a slow to medium growth rate, reaching about 60 ft (~18 m) tall and wide.
