DESCRIPTION

Lovely to meet you, my name is Crimson King Norway Maple. I am an incredibly popular choice as a shade-providing front yard accent, best known for my deep burgundy foliage which grows in a natural, rounded form. In the spring, I bloom an abundance of lemon yellow flowers before my leaves appear, and in the fall my leaves turn a striking deep purple. I am low maintenance, and only require pruning once all my leaves have fully developed. I am very adaptable, not particular to any soil type or pH, and very tolerant of urban pollution - you can plant me right in the city! I am happiest, healthiest and most beautiful when I am grown in full sun, and my soil is kept moist and not allowed to dry out!

Care Guide

Crimson King Maple, or Acer platanoides 'Crimson King,' prefers full sun and well-drained soil. Water consistently, especially during dry spells. Prune to maintain its shape and remove dead wood. This maple variety stands out for its deep purple leaves throughout the growing season, providing a bold contrast in your garden or landscape.
