COLUMNAR RED MAPLE


The Red Rocket Maple is a narrow and upright, deciduous red maple that is narrow like the Bowhall Maple, but with a slower growth rate. The US National Arboretum introduced the Red Rocket and notes that the Red Rocket Maple is one of the hardiest red maples to cold. Green summer leaves turn bright orange and red during autumn.

The columnar Red Rocket Maple thrives in full sun and evenly moist, acidic, well-drained soils. Selected by the National Arboretum from a northern Minnesota seed source.

Planting Tips

To help this plant settle in and thrive, we recommend these standard planting practices: Plant in well-draining soil with a slightly acidic pH. Water regularly, but avoid overwatering. Mulch around the base to retain moisture and suppress weeds. Fertilize annually with a balanced fertilizer. Prune in late winter or early spring to maintain shape and promote healthy growth.
