Description
- This vigorous red maple tree not only grows in the shape of a flame but has the most glorious fiery red tones in autumn
- Clusters of tiny red flowers appear in spring, followed by winged fruits
- Foliage emerges with a red tint, matures to dark green with a whitish underside and turns on a dazzling display of bright reds in the autumn
- An attractive tree in every season, perfect for avenue planting or as a specimen tree in a large lawn
- Smooth grey bark provides winter interest, becoming ridged and furrowed with age
- Low maintenance and easy to grow, with minimal pruning needed
- Our trees are professionally pruned before dispatching. This formative pruning can involve cutting the main leader, if the expert tree growers decide this will produce a better shaped tree. This can stop the tree becoming “leggy”, and promote stronger, bushier growth.MORE
