Amur Maple is an incredibly colorful tree. As summer turns to fall, it's bright green leaves turn fiery red. This tree is perfectly suited for urban environments. It's small size allows you to plant it in city yards and beneath power lines. Amur maple can also tolerate urban pollution, moist to dry conditions and is not affected by soil type or pH.
Norway Maple is a tolerant and adaptable shade tree. This is probably why it is the most popularly planted boulevard tree in North America.
Note: Norway Maple will sucker with age. It's also not a good idea to plant it under power lines.
Note: This species is currently unavailable. Grow your own using Norway Maple seeds at SeedTime.ca.
