Red Maple - Acer rubrum

Grows to 40m very rapidly which progresses from a Pyramidal to spreading rounded shape with age. Known for its stunning Autumn display colours which transform from a lovely dark green to vibrant shades of scarlet and yellow. Canadian Maples have grey smooth bark which highlights the red/orange flowers. This tree is easy to establish and grows under a range of soil and climatic conditions. Grows in part or full sun. Does well in moist acid soils. With extremely eye catching leaf fall this trees would be a wonderful addition to large gardens, parks and campuses.
