SOLD OUT
The Korean Maple is an ideal accent tree, and is similar in size and shape to the Japanese Maple, but much hardier. The leaves have long, finger-like lobes that turn striking shades of yellow, orange and red in autumn.
It is recommended that pruning be done during the summer after the leaves have fully developed to ensure sap does not "bleed" down the tree.
Sugar Maple is a large, deciduous tree known for its brilliant fall yellow, orange, and red-orange color display.
This long-lived shade tree features unique "maple"
lobed leaves.
Note: this Zone 4 tree is unlikely to produce commercially viable sap on the prairies.
