Autumn Blaze Maple
Red Sunset Maple

Autumn Blaze Maple is a striking maple variety. It is a hybrid between Silver and Red Maple with the preferred qualities of each: the fast growing nature of Silver Maple combined with the brilliant fall color and strength of Red Maple.

Autumn Blaze Maple even provides winter interest with its attractive, upright, oval shaped form. Ideally suited as a shade or accent tree, this maple variety will be your new favorite tree.

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.
