American Elm vs Red Sunset Maple
Ulmus americana
Acer rubrum Sunset
SOLD OUT
NOT AVAILABLE THIS SEASON
American Elm is fast growing, tall tree with a recognizable and pleasing shape.
It's well suited for urban environments because of its non-invasive roots and ability to grow on harsh sites (quite salt tolerant). American Elm develops a wide, dense canopy that provides shade for many city streets around North America.
Red Sunset Maple is named for its stunning orange and red leaves in the fall. It is a fast growing cultivar of the Red Maple that is native to Eastern North America. The winter stems and spring flowers are also tinged with red color, making this tree attractive year round.
The Red Sunset Maple is salt sensitive and prefers moist soil with slightly acidic conditions.
