Autumn Blaze Maple Acer x Freemani 7 Gal

The Autumn Blaze maple tree boasts beautiful fall foliage and has a shapely form, making it a focal specimen when landscaping a large area. This tree is a hybrid of the red maple and the silver maple, both native to North America. With densely balanced and ascending branches and an oval crown, the Autumn Blaze maple tree matures quickly and can grow as much as two feet per year under the right conditions. This variety of shade tree is pollution-tolerant (an important factor if you plan to grow one along a busy street) and suitable for urban areas. It can also adapt to a wide range of soil conditions, including those that are nutrient-poor. Come fall, the green leaves of the Autumn Blaze maple tree turn a coveted brilliant orange-red, hence its name.
