RED SUNSET® RED MAPLE
The Red Sunset® Red Maple is a popular, highly rated red maple with good reason! It is a fast growing, female, deciduous tree with a strong symmetrical branching habit and strong wood. Lustrous green foliage in summer changes to brilliant shades of red and orange-red in fall.
The Red Sunset® Maple adapts to a wide range of soil types, but prefers evenly moist, slightly acidic, loamy, well-drained soil. It enjoys full sun to partial shade. It will not tolerate salt. This popular shade tree is ideal in wide tree yards, streets, parking lots, gardens, and parks.
