Quick Overview

Autumn Blaze® Maple is an extraordinary hybrid that marries the best traits of Silver Maple and Red Maple, creating a tree that’s nothing short of spectacular! With its rapid growth and breathtaking display of fiery fall colors, this tree transforms any landscape into a vibrant masterpiece. Imagine the stunning sight of its brilliant leaves dancing in the autumn breeze, bringing warmth and excitement to your yard. Not only does it enhance your outdoor space, but it also thrives in a variety of conditions, making it a resilient choice for any homeowner. Plant an Autumn Blaze® Maple and watch as it becomes the centerpiece of your home, offering beauty and joy for generations to come!

Why it rocks:

Autumn Blaze® Maple is our most popular shade tree. It has a vigorous growth rate and magnificent bright red fall color. In the fall, the tree gradually transitions from a cool medium green to a fiery palette of red-orange colors. Homeowners appreciate that this tree is less messy because it's considered nearly seedless. Autumn Blaze® Maple grows to have a broad oval crown with upright branching. Its canopy provides dense shade in the hot summer months. This tree's drought tolerance and rapid growth rate make it a proven performer in urban landscapes. Autumn Blaze® Maple will add significant value, texture, color, shade, and beauty to your yard.

Where to put it:

Autumn Blaze® Maple is a popular choice for both landscapers and homeowners. It serves as a stunning focal point in residential front yards, backyards, and parkways, and is also well-suited for city medians and community parks. This robust tree grows vigorously and is highly adaptable, making it suitable for nearly any landscape location. Due to its size, it is recommended to plant it at least 15 feet away from buildings, allowing ample space for its magnificent shade to flourish.

What it needs:

Autumn Blaze® Maple is one of the most adaptable trees available. It will flourish in full sunlight and well-drained locations. In contrast to traditional Silver and Red Maples, this variety is less susceptible to leaf chlorosis. While it is renowned for its drought resistance, it also thrives in slightly moist soils. This remarkable tree is almost seedless, which makes it low-maintenance. To promote a strong & healthy root system, please follow our tree care guidelines during the early growing seasons.
