The bark of Acer x conspicuum 'Phoenix' (snakebark maple) offers winter interest and changes intensity of colour during the year. This upright tree was a seedling of Acer × conspicuum 'Silver Vein' that was itself an interspecific hybrid resulting from a cross between the Chinese Acer davidii and the North American Acer pensylvanicum.
