Acer tegmentosum, Manchurian striped maple is a species of maple genus, which is natively found in the south of the Russian Far East (along the Amur and Ussuri rivers in Primorsky Krai), northeastern China (Heilongjiang, Jilin, Liaoning), and in Korea.[3]

Acer tegmentosum is old-hardy down to USDA zone 5a (-29°C). It reaches a height of 10-15 meters, with greenish-grey bark with bright white stripes. Leaves are not compound, each up to 12 cm across, round in general outline but with 3 shallow lobes (sometimes with two small additional lobes near the base), the lobes doubly toothed at the edge.
