Details
A USDA cultivar selected for its flame-red autumn leaf color. A very hardy and tough small growing tree with dense foliage. The seed turns bright red in summer while the leaves are still green. The scarlet leaves in autumn are as brilliant as any of the Maples. A good plant for specimen or screening. Mature size is around 15-20'. Hardiness to zone 3. Likes to be planted in full sun to part shade. NOTE: Container and grow bag sizes are similar.
